Brenda Marie Yeager, Lake County Poet Laureate 2024-2026, has gathered some of the best people imaginable to right the course of our spinning rock with their words of truth. That is, poets, of course! We are your neighbors from Lake County & Santa Rosa, who have been writing & reading together around town & online for years.

Come listen with us to what emerges when humans speak from their fierce and tender hearts.
