Speaking at Carleton College’s Convocation, Teaching a workshop with their Slam Poets, and Performing at their Student Poetry Show in Northfield, MN!
What a wonderful day. Sarah started the morning with a keynote address at Carleton’s Convocation (pictured above, photo by Peter Varnum). It was held in a beautiful church, and full of students. Later, Sarah got to sit in on the Carleton Slam Poetry Collective’s weekly meeting. It was an absolute joy to get to write, share, and listen to what these talented poets are creating. Later still, Sarah performed in a more informal show and was shocked to discover it a packed house. Not as shocked as she was about the weather, though: A blizzard on April 19? Come on, Minnesota! Thanks to everyone for making today such a fantastic experience despite the weather.
