Janet “Good Attitude, Great Poetry” Wondra

Another exciting night of poetry is upon us, as Roosevelt professor, poet, and creative nonfictionist Janet Wondra prepares to read from her new chapbook, Bad Attitude, from Finishing Line Press! We’re just happy she found time in between editing the Oyez Review and making award-winning films to write more of her high quality poetry!

Triple Fudge Cake! Dogs in hats! Poetry Excitement! Guaranteed at least one of those three things will be on the agenda. The reading will be held at the Tamale Hut Café, Saturday, January 28^th at 7pm. Come for the poetry, stay for the open mic. Good times had by all!

Wondra Chapbook Has Bad Attitude!

Janet Wondra, Roosevelt's Oyez, Non-fiction, and Poetry professor, has a new chapbook forthcoming from Finishing Line Press! Andrei Codrescu (author of Whatever Gets You Through the Night: A Story of Sheherezade) says that, with Bad Attitude, Wondra, "like all serious working poets, makes formidable weapons out of tough, small word-boats." 

Ask Janet Where She Got The Cover!

Finishing Line Press is an award winning small press publisher. They are located in central Kentucky and have been publishing poets since 1998. Congratulate Janet when you see her in the hallway! Bad Attitude will begin shipping October 21st. You can preorder the book here!
