Reading at MESH Gallery in Morganton

I'm excited to have been invited by Eliot Lytle and Ted Pope to kick off their new reading series at Eliot's gallery, MESH, on May 8. The Gallery is at 114B W. Union St. in Morganton, NC. The reading will start at 3:00 and will include live music from The Secret Alphabets and of course attendees will be able to view the artwork on display as well. And if you're tired of hearing poems from "Paternity," this is a reading you'll want to attend. I'll be reading some of my more "interesting" poems -- the uncensored Scott Owens.

3 Days, 3 Readings

I have 3 very exciting readings starting this Saturday (4/10) at 2:00 at the Burke County Library Meeting Room (204 King St., Morganton) with Jessie Carty and Tim Peeler. Then on Sunday, I'll be in Raleigh at Quail Ridge Books (3522 Wade Ave) at 3:00 with Peter Makuck and Nancy Carter. Finally, on Monday, I'll be in Mitchell Community College's Rotary Auditorium at 7:30.
