Poetry Events Week of March 23, 2015

Holler 82 featuring Sarah McCartt-Jackson, Scott Daughtridge, Sheisty Khrist

Holler Logo by John LackeySarah McCartt-Jackson is a poet and folklorist whose topics tend to cover the natural world. Her latest chapbook is Vein of Stone from Porkbelly Press.

Scott Daughtridge is a short fiction writer hailing from Atlanta, Georgia. He is the creator of the “Lostintheletters” reading series at Atlanta’s Highland Ballroom.

Sheisty Khrist’s hip-hop roots go back much further than the writer of this blog post. As such, there’s not much to be said that hasn’t already, including (but not limited to) the news that his latest album, Cold Winter, is available now.

As always, Holler will be hosted by Eric Scott Sutherland and the open mic sign-ups start at 7pm (or, rather, as early as the sign-up sheet is available!).
