Poetry Reading and Open Mic

[bobobb.livejournal.com]

This is technically out of the square, so moderators feel free to take this down if you feel it is inappropriate.  But I thought Davis Square residents might be interested, because it is a five minute walk from the square.

Porter Square Books has a bimonthly poetry reading followed by an open mic tonight starting at 7pm.  The featured poets are from local writing and poetry graduate programs, so it is a nice way also to support local students.  It is of course free! 

Enjoy!

Thanks. Is this the first Friday of every other month?

It's twice a month...sorry for the confusion.

Thanks. I suggest changing the OP to say "semimonthly" and also say which weeks it will occur each month. First and third Fridays?

Just say "twice-a-month" or "twice-monthly". It's no more syllables than "bimonthly" and avoids confusion.

Or say "The first and third Fridays of each month."

And if you really meant "every two weeks" -- say that instead.
