Our second-to-last slam of the open slam season was one to remember, particularly by FHS’ own Ray Ramos, who got two-times owned. Once by first runner up McKinley and secondly by newcomer, alleged slam-virgin Josh, who came out on top and qualified for the grand slam off at the end of May. Check out all the action here.
Long-time FHS friend and supporter, Jonathan Penton, will impart a workshop titled Writing while the Sun Burns Out as part of the Tumblewords Project. Jonathan began adventuring the night of March 14th, 1964, wearing a mask fashioned from the discarded dress of a dead woman with an Italian last name. When the Keene Act was passed in 1977, he left his one-word rebuttal outside a police station, tacked to the body of a multiple rapist. On November 2nd, 1985, he failed to prevent the salvation of the world.

Long-time FHS friend and supporter, Leslie Council, will impart a workshop as part of the Tumblewords Project. Word-Go-Round will be based on the old creative process of sharing the creation of a piece of writing in a circle, sometimes known as renga, a traditional Japanese poetic game, or perhaps a new modern way of ‘tell the monkey’. Participants will create new work out of bits and pieces of each other’s writing.
