The SFWA Poetry Committee presents its Quarterly Poetry Open-Mic. Come and read your poetry to your fellow SFWA poets. This is an interactive online event hosted by Poetry Committee co-chair Wendy Van Camp. Our featured poet for January is Sultana Raza. Her work has appeared in “Abyss & Apex”, “Star*line”, and “Silver Blade”, with a story forthcoming in Flame Tree Publishing’s “Achilles Anthology”. An independent scholar and accomplished poet, Sultana has presented on Keats and Tolkien at international conferences and read her work across Europe and the U.S. Her writing blends vivid imagination with deep literary insight.
