Our Branch Members responded to each presenter with comments and suggestions. All five readings inspired animated discussions. After the five critiques, we enjoyed box lunches and good conversation. The event ended with Kriss sharing information about NLAPW in general and our branch in particular. Pat K. shared how she has benefitted from being a part of our Denver Branch and the Intensive Critique Group . Four Branch members read their poems that had been published in Women’s Voices of the 21st Century: Experiences That Shape Women, a book put together by the Greenwich, CT Branch of NLAPW.
