Subject: Event notice: q finger poetry tour
*q finger tour, April-May 2011*
WA-based poet *Janet Jackson* says: This is my idea of a holiday. I'm
wandering across the country with a guitar and a suitcase, visiting
Melbourne, Sydney, Canberra and Ardlethan, conversing with anyone who will
listen, hawking books, writing in odd corners, sleeping on spare mattresses
and playing songs in other people's living rooms. I'm also going to perform
the poems in my new chapbook q
finger<http://www.proximitypoetry.com/Books/qfinger.html>,
recently published by PressPress. Bring ten bucks if you want to take one
home.
Canberra poets and would-be poets, you get a workshop, too. Book with the
ACT
Writers
Centre<http://www.actwriters.org.au/events/upcoming-workshops-events.shtml#e
