The open mike starts at 8:00 (with sign-up prior to that). Mare will come on between 8:40 and 8:50 and give us 20 minutes or so of work.
Mare Heron Hake, feeling like a rex.
MARE HERON HAKE lives in the South Sound, is the busy poetry editor, a co-owner and co-publisher for Tahoma Literary Review; a founder and an organizer of the bi-annual, Red House Writers Retreat; a wife and mother, a dog owner, a wine and beer drinker, a slow as molasses runner, a sister, a lover of dinosaurs, a pumpkin gardener, a fan of both tea and coffee, an avid reader across genres, and a person who loves classic film noir and science fiction. She has over two hundred thousand miles on her minivan but has never once driven to a soccer practice and doesn’t understand the game, she has conversations with crows, believes all trees are sentient, is entirely feminist, and completely liberal. For Halloween, she sincerely recommends the movie “Them!” for its bridge of classic noir with monster movie tropes.
Recent works have appeared in Raven Chronicles, Hips and Curves blog, Terrain.Org, and the David Oates anthology, “Come Shining, Essay and Poems on Writing in a Dark Time.”
