Invitation from Eve West Bessier

Dear language lovers,
You are invited to join me online every Friday at 4:00, starting this week, for “Poetry Tea and Prose Scones.” This will be a light fare of your short poems and prose, mixed with conversation about our writing lives.
We will meet on Zoom. Their platform has a 40-minute time limit on free meetings, but we can add an additional separate call to give us a bit more breathing room if we need it. This week, we’ll just start with the 40-minute time slot and see how it goes.
Feel free to share a poem or prose excerpt (or piece of flash fiction). Since our time is limited, let’s keep our shares under three minutes. If you’d rather just listen and be audience, that’s fine as well. All are welcome!
It will be great to see you and to be together online as we continue to live at a distance from each other’s delightful presence.
I know some of you are sequestered in far away places, but there is no distance in cyberspace!
The meeting Zoom link is here: https://us04web.zoom.us/j/79748192631. Just click, or copy and paste it into your browser and follow the prompts to join the meeting.
I’ll give a quick intro if anyone on the call has never used Zoom before. You don’t need to join Zoom or anything, just click into the call.
We will start this week, so I hope to see you this Friday at 4:00!
With heart,
Eve
