READINGS

Claire Marsden

Whilst chronic pain and disability are Claire's daily companions, it is through nature and writing that she finds both the meaning and the means to make sense of the world in which she lives. Through her articles and poems, published on Tiny Buddha, Having Time, and Marias at Sampaguitas she strives to help others navigate the often complex realities of life. The natural world is a constant companion through many of her pieces and her poetry reflects this as she explores the human spirit.  Find her on Twitter @occulife or on the web www.hopehikesandhealing.com 

Lee Potts

Lee Potts is a poet with work in several journals including Rust + Moth, Ghost City Review, 8 Poems, UCity Review, and Sugar House Review. He is Associate Poetry Editor at Barren Magazine. He lives just outside of Philadelphia with his wife and their last kid still at home. You can find him on Twitter @LeePottsPoet and online at leepotts.net.  Here he reads "The Finding of Names."

Alex Smith

With a foot firmly each side of the Irish Sea, Alex Smith was raised in troubled Northern Ireland during the Eighties.
