We have chosen our first anthology theme for our group. It is "Beginnings." I'm super excited.
I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with.

Motown Literary Jam
November 9-10, Detroit.
Meet local authors for free or pay extra to hear a poetry jam. (But be warned, its 18+, and it might be that way for a reason.)
You can buy an "author" or "business" spot for $50. Anyone else tempted?
