"Stand As 1" returns Sunday, 5/11/14, w/special guest: Laura Breidenthal - Poet Tacito's Blog

Hola, fellow writers!

I've been SUPER busy with life, but haven't forgotten about you all here. How YOU doing? ;-)

This Sunday, May 11th @ 8am PST, we stay planted in good 'ol California to show love to our dear PS poet, Laura Breidenthal, on Blog Talk Radio!

She is one of the most poignant writers I've ever read on the Soup. Dark, passionate, intense, & unforgiving in her stanzas. I'm all for it!

I am very excited to have Laura on my show! Please make sure to tune in and join us, as we celebrate the limitless colors of Poetry...with that side of Mothers Day celebrations! :)

So, please join us as you'll have a chance to ask our guest & I some questions AND read your own work LIVE on the air! Be excited!!! DO IT! I'll wait!  

This is YOUR time to come together & shine, fellow poets. "Stand As 1" is an Open Mic internet radio show with the sole focus of providing all poets across the world a voice to be heard. So, DON'T BE SHY!

The fun all goes down at 8am PST/11am EST/4pm London Time/11pm in the Philippines!

Wanna listen and read your work on the show? Here's how...
To listen to the show & read your work, 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!
