Tuesdays with Writers

at the South Mill, 

48th and Prescott, Lincoln

tonight: Paul Baker and Kirk Brown

Paul writes on Goodreads.com: I was born in Pawnee City, Nebraska in 1949 and grew up in the state capital, Lincoln. I started writing at the age of 12 and have pursued it on and off throughout my life. I've written plays, novels, short stories, poetry, reviews and blogs. As an actor and director, I was involved in many theatrical productions in school and had a brief career in dinner theater after graduating from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. After that, I spent three years in Germany, serving in the U.S. Army, then I moved to San Francisco, California, where I lived for 18 years

During the four years I lived in Chinatown, I lost a very close friend to breast cancer and I participated in the Avon Breast Cancer 3-Day in 2000 and 2001, as a training walk leader and as a walker. It was in Chinatown that I began to develop a series of outlines for potential novels. Three novels were written during that period, which included three drafts of my first satisfactory work, Spirit Wind.

After spending an additional nine years in Santa Fe, New Mexico, I returned to Lincoln, completed and self-published Spirit Wind, and began work on a new novel about the breast cancer 3-Day walks, entitled Walk Against Time. As I rewrite it, I am also creating a new work based on an outline that I created in Chinatown,The Goddess of Abraham.

Kirk Brown, from the LiedCenter.org site:

J. Kirk Brown has served as Nebraska’s Solicitor General since 2003. He previously served as the Nebraska Department of Justice’s Chief of the Criminal Bureau, Chief of the Criminal Appellate Section, and Chief of the Civil Litigation Section. For more than 28 years, Brown has been Nebraska’s primary counsel in capital cases and was counsel of record in Nebraska’s three, most recent executions: State v. Otey (1994); State v. Joubert (1996); and State v. Williams (1997).

Brown also spent six years as the general counsel to the Texas Department of Corrections. There he witnessed more than 20 executions. While in Texas, he also was seated as a juror in a capital murder trial, State of Texas v. Jesse Dewayne Jacobs.

A graduate of the University of Nebraska College of Law (1973), Brown has lectured nationally on the death penalty, appellate practice, federal habeas corpus, and corrections law.

and we add: Kirk has been writing for a number of years, most recently poetry, has been gathering with several writing groups on a regular basis, and found that his thumb is indded green....

open letter from Deborah McGinn:

It is the long time philosophy of Tuesdays With Writers that all writers are welcome whether they are published or not. The key to beginning this wonderful series nearly 14 years ago, was to showcase the writing of Lincoln area poets and prose writers who have a passion for writing and a talent with words and images on a page. These writers may have books to their credit, they may be blessed in efforts to produce self published books or simply live to write and have a flair for it. These writers like to read on a microphone and share their efforts to entertain and illicit positive responses from a live audience. They come from academics, they are housewives and husbands who write, business men and women who write, high school students who excel at the art of writing. They are teachers, cashiers, bankers, waitresses, electricians, lawyers, therapists, coffee house employees, you name it. Above all these are writers are dedicated to the process of writing and the steps it takes to polish work and have fun with creativity. Tuesdays With Writers is not exclusive. Tuesdays is free of charge—we are not a country club and we do not discriminate against anyone. With this philosophy, we have always drawn out the best writers in our city. I cannot remember one performance that was not moving, did not make us laugh, cry, empathize and almost stand up on our chairs and shout the praises for those who craft a fine tune, craft a strong verse, line, stanza, paragraph. We stay after the show and discuss writing afterward and keep the eternal flame of original writing that matters going strong.


In the Lincoln Journal Star this morning, an advertisement for the May 6 reading of Women Write Resistance, a new and powerful book that surfaces the poetry of violence against women appeared in the At A Glance section. "More than 100 female American poets in the anthology confront the ways gender violence is perceived in American culture." (from At a Glance) The article mentions seven names, though there are other Nebraska women in the book. It should have either mentioned no names or all the names to respect the philosophy and foundation that Tuesdays With Writers is known for. Tuesdays With Writers invites anyone published in this book to read. I request to preview any advertisement for the press or public eye where Tuesdays With Writers is represented in the future.
–––––––––––––––––––––––––


In addition, there is a new book out called Writing in Community: Say Goodbye to Writer's Block and Transform Your Life written by Lucy Adkins and Becky Breed. 

On June 4 at Tuesdays With Writers at 7:00 p.m. the reading will show off this wonderful book and all writers inside are welcome to read a few of their pieces. I sat down and read it Saturday and am most pleased and excited about this fine book I can use in my classroom and others can use in writing groups, in pairs or individually. This is a magical piece of work that will inspire writers of all kinds. Here are all the awesome names of Nebraska writers represented: Zoya Zeman, Rex Walton, T. Marni Vos, Sarah Thomas, Kathy Timperley, Mike Stinson, Willie Smith, Luella Corliss Shon, Barbara Schmitz, the late Lynn Samsel, Laura Salisbury, Marjorie Saiser, Claudia Reinhardt, Helen Holz Raikes, Amy Plettner, Charlene Neely, Deborah McGinn, Lynda Madison, Leo Kovar, Suzanne Kehm, Jan Kaufman, Heidi Hermanson, Neil Harrison, Twyla Hansen, Judy Greenwald, the late Irene Rose Gray, Shelly Clark Geiser, Marilyn Dorf, Karla Decker, Kristen Cass, Dianne Brown, Becky Breed, Pam Herbert Barger, Lucy Adkins. Lucy came to Lincoln High Friday to lead a writing prompt for my Creative Writing class and was a real hit. It was positive for the students to see a woman from their home town who has written a book. They far too often think authors have to come from the east and west coast. Imagine Lucy and her joy for writing leading the young. Thank you!

Deb Walz has a new chapbook titled Lineage! I read it cover to cover this weekend and was fascinated by the content's honesty and style. Deb also came to Lincoln High and read from Lineage in my Creative Writing class Wednesday. They loved the book and they loved Deb. They learned that writers in Lincoln, Nebraska can publish and be recognized for well-written poetry. Thank you!

Deborah McGinn, manager of Tuesdays with Writers, sent us a note:

I would like to thank Deb Walz, Charlene Neely, Karla Decker, Lucy Adkins, Barabara Salvatore and Marilyn Dorf for coming to Lincoln High when I was sick and without a voice to assist me with Creative Writing for one period.  I do not know what I would have done without you.  I was in complete awe while each of you were leading these attentive and gracious learners.  My students and I appreciated your fine writing and reading.  They walk away with a multiple perspectives on poetry, narrative, and fiction— and that my friends, is a true gift.  I have Slam Poetry t. shirts to give you as a symbol of our gratitude.  I will bring them to the next Tuesdays With Writers.  I will never forget your generosity.

Love,

Deborah

Wendy Jane Bantam's Artist Statement 

Dream and reality have always interplayed within my work. Our family farm was in a part of the Nebraska Sandhills called Mirage Flats. At certain times of the day, light played on the fields and on the clouds casting illusions of blue mountains on what was otherwise, a desert. My father worked on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation and my childhood daydreams were blanketed with stories my father would tell at night and the happenings of the Lakota Sioux. I never knew what was real or a mythological tale. It was a fantastical world where I was constantly in awe of the smallest of changes in light, and nuances of story telling. In the beginning I wanted to find a way to parallel mythological stories with reality. In working with oils, I found color, light, and form emphasized the mystery of the story by drawing viewers in to the texture, and field of canvas. 

Weaving dream life with reality through image making is one thing; even more compelling for me is the making of a painting. The brush and the knife on the canvas, and the process of making a composition and essentially creating problems to be solved with form, and color moves me. 

In regards to my most recent body of work I moved through the process of making paintings without restriction of linear narrative. I created the work to be viewed as a moveable storyboard. The paintings were based on a dream. It was not so important to know the exact nature of the dream, as it was to have the freedom of the telling of it; and for each painting to stand on its own. By creating multiple paintings at once and moving from each massive painting I could essentially be in the painting as I was making it.
