What’s Love Got To Do With It?

JRW’s first-ever open mic dedicated to love found, lost and hopelessly unrequited.

Reveal (in 3 minutes or less) your stories, poems, rants, soliloquies, lyrics, diary entries and steamy chat histories regarding the wildly misunderstood although highly desirable malfunction known as Love.

With special host, poet T.S. Prunier

To guarantee your 3-minute space for the evening, email anne@JamesRiverWriters.org between February 1 and February 18. Write “February Open Mic” in the subject line. If time allows, sign ups will be available at the door.

Tom Sanchez Prunier has been a fixture on the Richmond poetry scene for nearly five years. He entered the poetry universe through the side door of poetry slam competitions. In 2006, Tom founded the SlamRichmond poetry slam series, now in its fifth year of sending a team of poets to compete in the National Poetry Slam. He was a member of "Team Richmond" in 2007. Tom's poetry has been published in several periodicals and collections, including the recent edition of Skipping Stones. He has self-published two chapbooks of his poetry, ¡Die Minivan Die! (2006) and T.S. Lives (2009).

The Writing Show, sponsored by James River Writers, is held on the last Thursday of the month.

The Writing Show brings published authors and other literary professionals together in one place for an insider's look at the craft and the business of writing.

In every genre, for every kind of writer, The Writing Show offers inspiration, motivation, and thought-provoking conversation all in a lively, entertaining format.

Entertaining, interactive, The Writing Show is ...

... Inside the Actor's Studio meets the New York Times bestseller list.

... The Tonight Show meets the art of writing.

It's inspiring. It's fun. And it's only happening here, live in Richmond.
