Other ways to participate in Coast
Weekend
As each cold, winter day passes in March,
the North Coast is a little closer to the
warmer days of spring. As fl owers blossom
and the daylight sticks around longer, a new,
fresh season will begin.
In honor of the new season, a collection
of readers’ poetry will be featured in an April
edition of Coast Weekend. Whether you’re
already a published writer or want to try writ-
ing poetry for the fi rst time, you’re welcome
to participate.
Poems can explore any topic but those
that relate to spring or to life on the North
Coast are preferred. To participate, send up
to three poems to editor@coastweekend.com
Coast Weekend’s monthly book club will
feature author Tamara Kaye Sellman, whose
book “Intention Tremor” features a collection
of poems inspired by living with multiple
sclerosis. Sellman will talk about the book
during a virtual Zoom meeting on April 14.
Flowers blossom on a tree along the Astoria Riverwalk in April 2020.
The book is available to purchase at
moonpathpress.com/tamarasellman.htm.
Author proceeds go to the Accelerated Cure
Project.
If you have a story idea or suggestion for
content you’d like to see in Coast Weekend,
