CALLING ALL WRITERS (and curious readers/listeners)!! The Peterborough Town Library and Monadnock Underground are hosting a free form OPEN MIC for writers of all genres and levels of experience!

Poetry, prose, something you're not even sure what it is - bring it on down! You can sign up as you arrive at 5:30.In an effort to keep things relaxed, loose, and informal, we are hoping to avoid fixed rules like maximum length; we'll simply ask that readers be mindful of how many others are signed up to read and the fact that we will have a hard stop at 7 pm. Though there will be no formal group-critique of any readings, this is a great chance for any writers who ARE interested in feedback to get some audience reactions.


We'll have some coffee, tea, and water on hand, and M/U will have some books AND some veteran writers on hand...perhaps even some reading sneak previews of works in progress!
