at our first Open Mic Night, we welcomed two readers who both shared Christmas stories:
Brent read us the tale of Stubby Pringle written by Jack Schaefer (of Shane fame)...
Stubby Pringle, spurs a jingle, jobs upslope through crusted snow.The roan, warmed through, moves strong and steady under him. Line cabin and line work are far forgotten things back and back and up and up the mighty mass of mountain. He is Stubby Pringle, rooting, tooting hard-working hard-playing cowhand of the Triple X, heading for the Christmas dance at the schoolhouse in the valley.
Lula shared an autobiographical Christmas story as well as a poem...
i'm thankful for those who came to read, and those who stayed to listen. We'll do the Open Mic Night again on January 20, 2009, and we welcome original work, interpretive readings or even book talks! it's open...
