Burnt Tongue 13, THREE YEAR ANNIVERSARY

Burnt Tongue is a quarterly literary event, created to honor the incredible writing teacher and literary patriarch, Tom Spanbauer, who founded Dangerous Writers. Burnt Tongue's goal is to allow space for former and current Dangerous Writers with all levels of public reading experience to come together and share their work with the likes of you! Not EVERYONE has to have been a student of Tom's, and we frequently have guest readers. We ask for a $5 donation at the door, which goes into a little scholarship designed to help writers keep writing. The next event takes place Sep 5,2015 at 5-8pm at Crush Bar, 1400 SE Morrison in Portland, OR. What you can expect: The readers will start with 5 minutes apiece at 5:00pm. Expect a fifteen minute intermission to start somewhere close to 6:15, with the second half starting no later than 6:30. The show will be over no later than 8:00, and many of the authors will be available to stick around and mingle.
