D5 member Robert L. Dean, Jr., has two reading events coming up. First, on Monday, February 7th, Dean will be reading on Zoom for the Oceanside (NY) Public Library's Poetry Near and Afar series, as the "Afar" poet. The "Near" poet is Dean's good friend J.R. Judy Turek of Long Island, NY. Moderator of this event is Tony Iovino of the Oceanside (NY) Public Library. The Zoom begins at 6 PM Central, and there is an open mic after the two features, so come prepared to read a poem in one of the best poetry Zooms going. The link to access the Zoom will be posted when it becomes available.
Second, Dean has been accepted as a reader at the 17th annual Scissortail Creative Writing Festival, taking place from Thursday, March 31st through Saturday, April 2nd, on the campus of East Central University in Ada, Oklahoma.
