Join us on October 9, 2024 at 7 PM at The Felician University Little Theater at 230 Montross Avenue in Rutherford, NJ, for a fantastic poetry reading, featuring the writers published in RWB #17.
If you have work in this issue, congratulations! We would love you to attend the October 9 launch to read your work from the book.
PLEASE NOTE: We moved the launch to 10/9 because Rosh Hashana is on 10/2. Please put it on your calendar if you’re available.
At the launch, we’ll have books for sale for the promotional price of $15, two whole dollars less than our listed price online! Come and get your copy. Our contributors are our only “subscribers,” so there are no free contributor copies—but reading at the launch qualifies you to submit to RWB18!
Our featured poet this year is Tom Benediktsson. We’re excited to include two special sections that continue to expand our local poetry circle: one of them is guest-edited by poet Tamara Zbrizher, and another one is dedicated to Lyndhurst High School poets. This year, our main poetry section is curated by Arthur Russell who also took the photos for the section openers (we love the tomatoes prose section!) Don’t miss the insightful prose pieces curated by Frank Rubino, covering topics from Williams’ life and poems to memoir and prose poetry. All this exciting work is wrapped up in a beautiful blue cover, featuring the painting Crow Story #2 by Kay Stanfield, a nod to the doctors’ famous white chickens. We hope you’ll find this edition inspiring, a slice of the best contemporary writing in New Jersey and New York. We also hope that The Red Wheelbarrow Nr. 17 will motivate each one of you to continue to write, create, and attend our weekly workshops on Zoom and our monthly events at The Felician University Little Theater.
Hope to see you all on October 9 at the launch in Rutherford! Please forward this email to your family and friends—this will be a huge celebration.
