Eve Brackenbury finds the seduction in life. And as one reader noted, "her poetry is always sexy." She's a city poet and suburban bookseller who lives at the edge of nowhere next to a lazy bend in the river. She works as a writing and English tutor, and often hosts creative writing workshops. When she's ... (more)not busy writing and performing, she's selling books and hosting author's book signings at Prospero's Parkside Books in Blue Springs, Missouri. Eve is also host to the Wordstock Poetry Festival held each September in Sibley, Missouri. Her first book of poetry was written with Virginia co-author Paul McGlamery. Their book, A Companion of Lesser Brilliance, is not just a collection of poems, but the story of two lovers who are seduced by the moon. Her latest release, The Lennox Garden: Pressed Between Pages, is a collaboration of poetry and art with Phillip King. It travels along life's highs and lows and all the bumpy paths along the way. Tom Reynolds is an associate English professor at Johnson County Community College in Overland Park, Kansas, and has published poems in various print and online journals, including New Delta Review, Alabama Literary Review, Aethlon -- The Journal of Sport Literature, The MacGuffin, Flint Hills Review and Prairie Poetry. Woodley Press of Washburn University published his poetry collection Ghost Town Almanac in 2008. This event features music by Gib Shell.
