Join us in a conversation open to writers, poetry readers, and the poetry-curious alike! We'll share how we developed memories, personal curiosities, and unexpected obsessions into the poems that would become our debut books. What does it take to shape an image, rough story, or family myth into a body of work? How do themes and threads come together in a poetry collection? 

Please help Schuler Books plan for the event and RSVP here.

Join Kristin and fellow poet Colleen Alles for a casual reading at Books & Mortar. Even if you just have a few minutes to stop and browse the lovely selection, we’d love to see you!
