Stavanger for a lo-o-o-ng week but I wasn’t
bored. The best part was they didn’t let me stay at the little 150
year-old, almost by-the-harbour, beautifully worked, but haunted house.
So I could write a poem about it and do jazzpoesi with Johan Egdetveit,
wonderfully versatile accordionist. Beautiful Wednesday evening at a
vegan cafe called Resept. Lots of poetry. Lots.
Then we did the library and we did the
barnamuseet, the children’s museum, where I donned a raincoat and hat to
read a rain story of a wet crow to four year olds. They loved it!
Saturday was exciting with more poetry reads broadcast to a live
audience at St Andrews, Scotland. Hats off to ICORN and Sharahzad for
all those memorable days!
