Rachel Reid Features at Writer’s Block First Draft, Friday, December 18, 2009
This month’s Writer’s Block is featuring Columbus poet and WB’s own Rachel Reid.
As First Draft host Joanna Schroeder puts it, Rachel “is a Cleveland native who attended her first poetry reading in 1997 and has been hooked ever since. After moving to Columbus in 2004, Rachel Reid became a regular at the Writers’ Block poetry night and has been known ever since as a local poet, salsa dancer, and crowd-pleasing emcee… When Rachel shares her work, the experience of listening is like watching a flock of white doves take flight – it is unexpected, entrancing, and unforgetable.”
Her feature, as always, will be followed by the traditional First Draft open mic.
For those not familiar with the night, First Draft is a poetry night where new poems and new poets are always welcome. Cover is $3 for the night. Come on out and share your *new* poetry — and be prepared for an awesome feature!
