The Morgantown Poets Meeting will host West Virginia writers Marie Manilla, Beverly Bisbee, and Ginger Hamilton on Thursday April 21 at 11:00 a.m. in the Forum of the Media Innovation Center and again from 7:00-9:00 p.m. at the MAC (High Street, downtown Morgantown). Each of the authors has written an emotionally powerful short story told in the second person. One evokes laughter, another tears, and yet another shock. Beverly Bisbee’s essay “Holding Memories” and Ginger Hamilton’s “Bringing Home the Bacon” appear in Fed from the Blade, and Marie Manilla’s “Grooming” appears in her Still Life with Plums. This event is free and open to the public.
