Elizabeth Dawn’s second memoir, I Left A Stranger: A Coming Out & Into Estrangement, release!

Their first poetry chapbook and it tells the story of their arrival to Pittsburgh while coming out to themselves in deeper ways through the necessary pain of estrangement from family. The distance has been healing.

Elizabeth Dawn will be @poetrypgh for an author reading/meeting from 6-7p. Celebrate the writing and publishing of words—difficult to say aloud but deserving of voice!

Right after is Open Mic, hosted by @pghpoetry (the collective), so stick around to hear more poetry or sign up to share your own!

Poetry Lounge Press is looking for more poets and writers interested in publishing. If you want to see your words in print, you have a fantastic partner in Sean Enright. Email yawp@poetryloungepgh.com to inquire!
