“In 2020 splab produced the 14th annual poetry postcard fest with participation from 544 poets in 11 countries, 47 states and 3 canadian provinces. We produced online workshops in 2020, helping participants expand their understanding of the history and theory of spontaneous composition which continues. We started an online the turtle island tertulia (literary salon) and conducted 17 interviews (mostly with poets) and facilitated other online literary events due to the lockdown to help combat the spread of covid 19, the novel coronavirus. We are also started work on an anthology to be published in 2022 entitled cascadian zen.”
