War of Water My Name Is Nobody
    April 4th marked the first time Janet Kuypers hosted Community Poetry@Half Price Books, which was the only meeting like this at Half Price Books (5555 N Lamar Blvd, Austin, TX) during National Poetry Month in 2018. April 4th also marked a April 2018 Book Release Reading of new books from Scars Publications, which saw the release of the books “War of Water” from cc&d magazine; and “My Name is Nobody” from Down in the Dirt magazine. In his reading, Janet Kuypers read performance art poetry and song material from the show “Energy with Poetry and Music” that appeared in cc&d magazine’s book (along with a haiku) as well as poetry from “My Name is Nobody”.

Language of Untamed Spirit the Light in the Sky
    Because issue collection books - have also been recently released, Janet Kuypers also read (in two separate readings) material from the Scars Publications cc&d September-December 2017 issue collection book “Language of Untamed Spirit” and and the Down in the Dirt September-December 2017 issue collection book “the Light in the Sky” for the final readings of the event.

    There is also a YouTube playlist of the videos of this show, and there are also two additional web page listings for the videos from this show — one is at Scars Video (at www.artvilla.com/scars), and the other is from the main listing at artvilla.
