SUMMARY:Second Tuesday @ Barkin' Dog
DESCRIPTION:The Second Tuesday Poetry Reading is as late in the month as it can get\, so be sure to mark your calendar for August 14 at 6:00 at the Barkin’ Dog Grill. \nThis month’s featured readers are DW Schmidt and Kathleen Winter\, and of course\, our featured readers will be followed by an open mic\, so bring a poem or two to share. \nD.W. Schmidt has written much more prose than poetry.  When he started writing poetry\, he felt the poems happened accidentally\, like they found him\, which was probably the influence of the great imagist poets he has taught in his college classes for so long.  Lately\, he has allowed his poems to be more topical\, personal\, phrase-driven\, and ultimately more intentional. \nKathleen Winter is the author of I will not kick my friends (2018)\, which won the Elixir Poetry Prize\, and Nostalgia for the Criminal Past\, winner of the Texas Institute of Letters Bob Bush Memorial Award. Her poems have appeared in Tin House\, Agni\, New Statesman\, New Republic and Yale Review. She was granted fellowships by Sewanee Writers’ Conference\, Dobie Paisano Ranch\, Dora Maar House\, James Merrill House and Cill Rialaig Retreat.

SUMMARY:Second Tuesday @ Barkin' Dog
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the Second Tuesday Barkin’ Dog reading on July 10 at 6:00 at the Barkin’ Dog Grill in downtown Modesto. We’ll have an evening of writing inspired by the poetry of Thomas Merton\, hosted by Ed Bearden. An open mic will follow the featured reading\, so bring a poem or two to share. \nAbout the Thomas Merton Poetry Group: In February of 2016 Deacon George Cano of St. Paul’s Episcopalian Church\, convened the Thomas Merton poetry group. It was began to provide more than chit-chat\, but rather to encourage spiritual growth. Poetry\, as another way to pray. Meeting twice a month\, the group wrote and published Poetic Prayer: writing from the soul. Meditation\ntechniques from Buddhist traditions or centering prayer were used to access the poetic well. The group consists of Deacon George Cano\, Ed Bearden\, Roberta Bearden\, Jeanette Comegys\, Stephanie Gilmer\, Sarah B. Hartmann\, Judy Miller\, Linda Marie Prather and Cheryl Russel Pogue. Others would be welcome to join the writing and fellowship.

SUMMARY:Second Tuesday @ Barkin' Dog
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Barkin’ Dog for the January edition of the Second Tuesday Reading Series. Our featured readers will wow and inspire us with their work\, and our Most Excellent Open Mic will knock your socks off. \nSusan Cohen is the author of two poetry chapbooks and two full-length collections\, including A Different Wakeful Animal\, winner of the 2015 Meadowhawk Prize from Red Dragonfly Press and finalist for half a dozen other awards.  Stephen Dunn wrote: “There are pleasures in almost every poem in Susan Cohen’s excellent A Different Wakeful Animal\, pleasures that arise out of an alertness to the natural world\, and the original phrasing she seeks and regularly finds.” She earned an MFA after a career as a journalist\, and lives in Berkeley. \nPaul Neumann‘s first book of poetry was published in 2003. His second collection\, This Valley\, appeared in 2013 and was informed by his love for the land and the people in the Central Valley. Beginnings and Endings\, his most recent collection\,begins with a series of poems inspired by the birth of his granddaughter\, Mary. The last segment of the book examines issues of aging\, a subject influenced by his own sense of mortality.
