FESTIVAL GUESTBOOK
Welcome to the Festival’s Guestbook! Please share your memories of past festivals here or your recent poetry news. We also hope you will join us in the Past Participants Facebook Group to share photos, stories, memories and connect with other past participants, faculty, interns and friends of the festival. We continue to believe that poetry will always bring us together.
To me Miles was the warm welcoming smile at the Festival, the smile that said he genuinely cared about you, about everyone. He gave the Festival it’s special intimacy. And I’ll never forget several years ago, when someone was rude to participants of the spoken word session. Miles jumped from his seat, the papa bear defending his cubs, ferociously protective—a side of him I had not seen. I loved it. I’ll miss him.
