Part reading,
part conversation,
part inspiration,
all invitation.
Join Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer for this 90-minute poetry experience in which she converses with Raft host Phyllis Cole-Dai.
Reading from The Unfolding, her latest collection, Rosemerry will pair select poems with other poets’ works that have inspired her. She will also share the stories behind some of her creative “unfoldings.”
Bonus: Rosemerry will generously offer writing invitations for you to use later in your own writing practice.
After the event, you’ll receive a goody packet containing everything that Rosemerry presented, along with the link to the video replay.
☀️ Two ways you can register for this event
Option 1: Pay online
Please contribute $15 via this link. (The payment page will say “Donate to Back Porch Productions LLC,” which is me!)
Once I’m notified of your payment, I’ll manually register you for the event with Zoom. This should happen within a day or so, depending on my schedule, as I’m in the midst of a cross-country move. Thank you for your patience.
Once I register you, Zoom will email you the link for Rosemerry’s event. Watch for that in case it goes to your spam box. FYI, I’ll also resend you the link both on the day before and on the day of the event.
Option 2: Pay by check
Please send a $15 payment by check, payable to me. Contact me (phyllis@phylliscoledai.com) to learn my new mailing address. You’ll receive an out-of-studio message due to my move, but I’ll be monitoring my inbox. I’ll take care of you!
IMPORTANT:
Send your check at least a week before the event so that it will be sure to arrive in time for you to receive the Zoom link.
Include your email address with your check. I’ll need that to register you with Zoom.
Thank you for persevering with me through these headaches. Believe me, Rosemerry will be worth it!
