Poetry Postcard Fest co-founder Paul Nelson interviews Laura Pena on her experience with the Poetry Postcard festival.
Participation statistics for the 20th Poetry Postcard Fest with information of the PPF Open Mic 5-6:30 PDT on Tuesday, September 1, 2026.
We need to learn from Fujitaro and see the gardens that can grow from our wastelands, from the Pacific trash heap to the City of Seattle dump to the logged former forestland to the filled in estuaries of rivers like the Duwamish that make the Port of Seattle or Marshlands that make Baltimore’s inner harbor to the sprawl of LA and suburbs around all cities in this country to the merciless businesses of insurance and pharmaceuticals and lobbying and media (social, in particular) and AI and bottled water and so on.
A workshop for poets interested in making the most out of the summer Poetry Postcard Fest and the end of fest daysong, day-long writing ritual,
I enjoyed the interview … esp. the reminder of the mailing post cards to self when traveling …
except for visits to family in TX and CO I don’t seem to get around much any more…
but
got the idea to send to myself to add to my journaling which tends to not happen regularly
when not home.

Thank you 🙂 <3
