National Poetry Month and Beyond 2026
I’m looking forward to getting on the road for NPM 2026 starting with the 21st Scissortail Creative Writing Festival in Ada, OK April 2-4. Next I’ll be on the road with old traveling companion PW Covington to St. Augustine Poetry Fest at Flagler College in Florida April 9-11. Back to Corpus and co-hosting the Third Thursday Open Mic at the South Texas Museum of Art with Annie Huckabee and Joe Wilson April 16. If you attend and read, your writing will be published by Mays Publishing. (After you read, submit a copy of the work as a Word document attached to an email to MaysPublishing@Yahoo.com by Saturday, April 18 at midnight.) Then on Saturday April 18th, reading with PW Covington at Books Ink in Portland, TX (just across the bay from Corpus Christi) April 18. Then down to the Border for the Valley International Poetry Festival in McAllen, TX. In July, flying to NYC for GonzoFest July 16-19. New book, where does love go is available here on the site and ask for an autographed copy from moi. See schedule for more exact times and links. More to follow as life unfolds.
All the best,
Tom
