Participants include Suzan Saxman author of “The Reluctant Psychic”, Sparrow X. Carter poet and author, Shiv Mirabito publisher of several Chapbooks of note by diverse authors, poet activist Amy King, author Abigail Thomas and publisher James Conrad of Golden Notebook Press. The panel and discussion is followed by Moth Radio Hour awardee Heather Dell'Amore who hosts a personal journal podcast in its second season called "That Wasn't Supposed to Happen" presenting guests who have experienced a fork-in-the-road event that changes the course of their lives. Dell'Amore's show "No Hope For Oz" is a series of monologues/stories from different life-defining and changing moments on topics ranging from childhood enchantment to the desire to run away from it all.  After the overwhelming response to a story about breastfeeding twins that unexpectedly won a Moth StorySlam “No Hope for Oz” was drawn like a moth to a flame toward wrestling topics Dell’Amore never wanted to wrestle.  This event is free.
