Salem Poetry Project featuring Charles K. Carter

Charles K. Carter is a queer poet from Iowa who now lives in Salem with their husband and spoiled pets. They enjoy live music, yoga, and theatre. Melissa Etheridge is their ultimate obsession. Carter is the author of Follow This Blood to Find a Dead Thing (Fernwood Press), The God of Loneliness (Rebel Satori Press), and If the World Were a Quilt (Kelsay Books).

For the months of November through February the Salem Poetry Project will meet at Marco Polo Global Restaurant. The restaurant’s address is 300 Liberty St SE, Salem and the reading will be in the banquet room.

Each week the Salem Poetry Project presents a featured reader followed by the Infamous Open Mic: three poems or five minutes whichever is first. Featured reader begins at 7:00 and the open mic will directly follow. For more information contact Marc Janssen at [email protected].
