August 18th, my next special guest on my Stand As 1 poetry radio show: Nette Onclaud! - Poet Tacito's Blog

Hey gang!

After some fun banter back & forth and figuring out time schedules, it's about to go down THIS SUNDAY, AUGUST 18TH at 8am PST/11am EST/4pm London Time/11pm in the Philippines!

Be ready for this probably once in a lifetime show!!! Because of the crazy time difference, my show will be on a Sunday morning (afternoon for some of you) rather than a Tuesday evening. We'll be doing live interviewing plus poetry reading & other potentially awesome discussion about whatever we want. So, join us!!! Do it for the children!

See all the details below to participate! SUPER SUPER EXCITED!!!

To listen to the show you have a few options:

Web: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/standas1 (There is a chat room where you can talk with myself and others in the chat, but you'll have to register on the site to do so. Otherwise, you'll just appear as "Guest12345" in the chat room with no ability to communicate with others).

Phone: (646) 716-4762 (You can hear the show live over the phone. If you want to actually read a poem on the air, then please be sure to press "1" and the voice prompt will confirm that you're in my Host queue to read a poem.)

Please keep in mind that all callers that want to read on my show are selected in the order they call in and who presses "1" to be placed in my queue.

If there are any questions, please leave a comment here or shoot me a SoupMail. I do hope you all will be able to participate!

Cheers!

-D.J.E.

Kabuteng P.Ink K. Date: 8/19/2013 6:26:00 AM Btw, hope it's ok that I post it here, remember how Nette and I said we had a typhoon? Still relatively non stop rains here and so many flooded areas now, with some under states of calamity, some people we know have had their houses flooded in, some knee high, some chest high.... I hope Nette's area doesn't get flooded. Please help us pray and send positive thoughts to all those affected, Thank You! Login to Reply Poet Tacito Date: 8/19/2013 8:38:00 AM This is totally ok. I hope you all are ok from that typhoon. Such a scary event for such a small country. My best wishes are with you all.

Poet Destroyer A Date: 8/12/2013 8:11:00 PM I have a question :-) are your special guest, only contest winners. I'm not talking about the ones that call in. Just wondering :-) Linda Login to Reply Poet Tacito Date: 8/12/2013 9:49:00 PM Well, for now, yes. Nette won my last contest. But, I would like others too. I just would rather more PS poets call in/participate just because...not because they won a contest of mine. :)
