Fireside Chats with Local Authors: Jen Payne
Join us for readings and discussions with local authors in front of the fireplace in our Reading Room!
This week we will be joined by Jen Payne, for a special poetry reading to honor International Women’s Day. She'll be reading from her new book, Sleeping with Ghosts, focusing on some of the astounding women she's known — mentors and muses and dear friends. Together, we’ll talk about how our relationships with women influence and inspire us. If you'd like, please bring a short (100 words or so) introduction about one important woman in your life to share with the group.
About the author:
Jen Payne is a poet, author, photographer, and artist. She is inspired by those life moments that move us most — love and loss, joy and disappointment, milestones and turning points. Her writing serves as witness to these in the form of poetry, creative non-fiction, flash fiction and essay. When she is not exploring our connections with one another, she enjoys contemplating our relationships with nature, creativity, spirituality and our inner lives. Ultimately, she believes it is the alchemy of those things that helps us find balance in this frenetic, spinning world.
Registration is not required to attend this drop-in event.
