On November 7 and 1:15 p.m. Beth Spragins, Kathy Smaltz and I will serve on a virtual panel at the November Rappahannock Writers Conference sponsored by Rappahannock Regional Library.

Poetry in a Plague Year 

Poets David Anthony Sam, Kathy Smaltz, and Elizabeth Spencer Spragins will discuss the consolations of poetry and contours of the creative journey. The panelists will share their strategies for overcoming the challenge of a blank page and embarking on the path to publication. Submitting poetry to journals, finding a traditional book publisher, and handling rejection are key components of the poetic life. Topics include: the consolations of poetry, overcoming the challenge of a blank page, submitting your poetry to journals, handling rejection, and finding a traditional publisher for your book.
