*Poets wanted* -- Your audience awaits. Random members of the public are
coming along on Saturday afternoons to *PERTH POETRY CLUB*, hoping to hear
some spoken word. Come and show off what you can do in our open stage
sections...
*JOIN OUR UPCOMING GUESTS:*
***18 JULY: Mike Williams*
*Mike's had his poetic licence for longer than we can remember. He used to
organise readings and edited a magazine 'Raven' back in the early 90s. Radio
National recently read his short story 'Barcelona'. **His two novels, *Old
Jazz* and *The Music of Dunes*, are published by Fremantle Press. His short
fiction and poetry have appeared in various Australian journals.*
25 JULY: Mar Bucknell + Sue Clennell. MC Mark Hutchins.
SUE CLENNELL looks younger every time we see her. She is often the most
interestingly-dressed person in the room, and her poetry competes pretty
well with her clothes. She has been widely published and was runner-up in
the 2006 Josephine Ulrick Poetry Prize. She has been a writer-in-residence
at the Katharine Susannah Prichard Writers Centre and is at present Creative
Writing Facilitator for The Society of Women Writers WA. MAR BUCKNELL works
as an editor, and takes this skill to an extreme in his own poetry. In the
poetry scene he is known for his short, thoughtful pieces and his inventive
performance style. We'd like to talk about the latter but we don't want to
spoil any surprises Mar may have for you.
1 AUG: P L Jones + Mark Lloyd
