Serving Lincoln County for more than a century!
The Odessa Friends of the Library are privileged to bring Washington State Poet Laureate, Kathleen Flenniken, to Odessa for an evening of poetry on Tuesday, October 1 at 7 p.m. at the Odessa Public Library.
Flenniken was raised in Richland and holds engineering degrees from Washington State University and the University of Washington, as well as a Masters in Fine Arts degree from Pacific Lutheran University. Among her other commitments, she teaches poetry writing to students of all ages.
She has written two books, "Famous" and a second collection "Plume", which is about her difficulty in facing up to a friend's father's death of a radiation illness and the Handford nuclear site.
Kathleen shares the evening with two poets from Spokane. Tod Marshal, who teaches at Gonzaga and is the author of three books of poems, and Nance Van Winckel, author of both poetry and fiction.
