Janet Kuypers reads her poetry in the “January 2019 Book Release Reading” live at Half Price Books 1/2/19 in Austin

January 2nd marked the January 2019 Book Release Reading, where Janet Kuypers had the opportunity to read from recent book releases from Scars Publications. In this reading at Half Price Books (5555 N Lamar Blvd, Austin, TX), Janet took time to read some of her poetry from the recently-released Scars Publications 2018 collections book “Accept Apart”, but because she was also there early to photograph poems of hers (most of which appear in the book “Accept Apart”) being submitted to the Antarctica Poetry Exhibition (@antarcticpoetry), she concluded her reading with one poem from her full-color photography and poetry book “Antarctica: Wildlife”.     Below are video and writing links to the live performance of poetry readings from January 3rd 2019 (1/2/19, or 20190103) at Half Price Books in Austin for the Community Poetry @ Half Price Books event.
