Happy to be reading poetry from the anthology Worth More Standing: Poets and Activists Pay Homage to Trees (along with a yet to-be-named fibre arts anthology) and doing a Zoom workshop for the Tri-City Wordsmiths writing group today!
A bit about Worth More Standing:
In Worth More Standing: Poets and Activists Pay Homage to Trees, celebrated poets and activists pay homage to the ghosts of lost forests and issue a rallying cry to protect remaining ancient giants and restore uncolonized spaces… Themes of connection, ecology, grief, and protection are explored through poems about trees and forests written by an impressive number of influential poets, several of whom have attended the recent Fairy Creek blockades and still others who defended old-growth ecosystems in Clayoquot Sound for nearly 30 years ago.”
The workshop is titled ‘The power of micro steps in helping to sustain your writing practice,” where I’ll be sharing a set of writing prompts to promote habits I’ve found useful in my own practice.
