I'd like to remind students that we are sponsoring
the annual poetry contest.
You still have until mid-December
to turn in your entries but be thinking
about writing your poems now.
The final double issue of Ironwood
has just been published and it's on sale tonight,
along with copies of Sonora Review
and some of Miss Dahlen's books.
Miss Dahlen is represented in this last issue of Ironwood,
so I hope you all brought your money with you.
Our final reading for this term will be one week from tonight
in this auditorium, a reading by XJ Kennedy.
And students who are interested in entering the contest
might want to know that Mr. Kennedy is
going to be the judge for the contest this year.
In addition to the work that Beverly Dahlen has been doing
for the Poetry Center this week and tonight,
she is speaking tomorrow for Chax Press Magritte Sessions
and her talk is called "Tautology."
That will be tomorrow afternoon at 4:30
at the Cafe Magritte, 254 East Congress Street.
And that is free.
I just learned tonight that there
is a reading of graduate fiction students tomorrow night
at the Cafe Olé at 8 o'clock.
And the readers are Susan Roberts, Sarah Streed,
and Pat Baliani.
That is free and open to the public and begins at 8:00.
Cafe Olé is right downtown on--
is it Broadway or Congress?
Broadway.
121 East Broadway.
Beverly Dahlen has come to us tonight from the Bay Area.
Her books are A Reading 1-7, published by Momo's Press,
and The Egyptian Poems.
And she has two chapbooks, A Letter At Easter
and Out Of The Third.
She was one of the founders of the feminist literary
periodical HOW(ever), and served as one
of its contributing editors until 1986.
It's a great pleasure to introduce to you:
Beverly Dahlen.
