PRE-FESTIVAL KICKOFF
Thursday, October 9
6:30-8:00 pm
At Books & Company
1039 Summit Ave., Oconomowoc
Kathie Giorgio introduces her new book, Let Me Tell You, Let Me Sing! This new collection of her poetry boldly expresses the reach and impact of poetry. From haiku to prose to even a poem put together by the subject lines of received emails, there is no topic left unexplored. A collection that speaks to everyone…even to those who claim not to like or even understand poetry. Immerse yourself, indulge yourself, and enjoy everything that poetry brings.
Richard Hedderman and Carroll University Professor B.J. Best, two other poets, will each be reading on the program. Hedderman serves on the Program Committee for the Festival of Books. Best will be featured on two Festival Panels, “Interactive Fiction” and “A Teacher’s Influence”.
There will be a Q & A with all three poets. A book signing will follow.
Event is free and open to the public but advance registration is requested.
