It's February, the month many celebrate love, and we're gathering to share poetry that we love, continuing in the Magic Theatre tradition of Matthew J. Wells. Deborah Nash Ott and Valerie Parker will host another Zoom Magic Theatre Poetry Reading Open Mic.

Sunday, February 19th
8:30 a.m. EST
5:30 a.m. PST

(it's based in Thailand, hence the early time)

Feature reader: Jeff Cottrill

Jeff Cottrill is a fiction writer, poet, journalist and spoken-word artist based in Toronto, Canada. He has headlined in countless literary series throughout Canada, the U.K., the U.S., France and Ireland over the last twenty years. His performance style is influenced by slam conventions, but subverts them with wit, ironic humour and a satirical tone. His poetry and flash fiction have appeared in several international anthologies from New York to Australia, as well as in The South Shore Review and The Dreaming Machine. Last year, he launched Hate Story, his seventh or eighth attempt at a first novel. Jeff likes movies, travel, and puppies. www.JeffCottrill.com
