Creatyve PenCraft

Magdalen Radovich

Writer - Poet - Photographer

Welcome to my creative corner of New York's Hudson Valley.  A big part of why I live here is the community of writers, photographers, musicians, and other artists who make their home here as well. Their work and vision inspire me in my own. 

 

Creatyve PenCraft is my way of opening more space and opportunity for people like you and me — people who love language and words and image and sound — to come together.  My monthly poetry reading series, Coffee, Tea & Poetry, hosted at Fermata Café & Roastery in Marlboro, is one of the ways I bring that idea to life.   I hope you'll join us!  Bring a poem, a story to tell, or come to listen and be part of the community!

SUNDAY, OCTOBER 25 · 2:45 PM

Once a month, poets, writers, and listeners gather at Fermata for an afternoon of inspiring words, company, and coffee.   We open with a featured poet, and then the floor is yours. Bring a poem, a story, or a piece still finding its way.  It can be an original work or a selection by a favorite author.  First-time readers are especially welcome. Or simply come to listen, because every reading needs an audience!

"Am I in my autumn, could it still be late summer? Maybe I'm just into the early part of the fall when the heat breaks, my favorite time, when you still have the fruits of summer and the promise of the harvest. It's cool enough to appreciate and savor but not enough to force you to face the chilling that's to come."
