Salina's Red Fern Booksellers will be hosting two local artists for their Poet Night on Thursday evening, April 30 at 6 pm. This is a conclusion to the city’s Arts and Humanities April Poetry Series held at the Red Fern.
Kansas Authors Club member Kevin R Peterson will be one of the presenters, sharing excerpts from his recent chapbook “A Poetic Wandering”.
Kevin R Peterson is a 4th generation Kansan (and Salinan) born on January 29 – Kansas Day. His affinity for poetry began in high school and grew as a result of a local writer’s group. He was fortunate enough to have many of his early works published by editors of numerous poetry magazines that were in print during the 1980s. During that period he published four poetry chapbooks.
In 1989 he authored a book which detailed the story of his daughter’s becoming one of the first children in the United States to receive a cochlear implant.
Kevin pulled away from creative writing for about thirty-five years as he was involved with technical writing: creating brochures, writing magazine articles, posting internet articles, and sharing hundreds of case histories that explained processes and solutions for products manufactured by companies he worked with.
Now retired, and settling back into “creative” writing, he recently published his newest chapbook A Poetic Wandering. He looks forward to becoming involved with, sharing, and meeting current writers of KAC.
