Inspiring Student Writers and Poets
The Healthman Hotel is supporting
students from the writing and publish
ing center at Roosevelt High School in
north Portland.
The luxury boutique hotel recently
purchased copies of the students’ new
anthology, “Where the Roses Smell Best:
A Literary Companion to Portland,”
which will be offered for sale to visitors
in every room of the downtown land
mark. Proceeds will go to fund the pub
lishing center and its mission.
The publication includes pieces on
Portland lifestyles, people and places
written by both Roosevelt students and
prominent local writers such as Oregon’s
poet laureate Paulann Petersen and Or
egonian newspaper colum nist Steve
Duin.
“We approached the Heathm an ini
tia lly ,” says K ate M c P h e rso n , a
R oosevelt teacher instrum ental in
launching the publishing program .
We wanted to align the m ission of
the hotel with the school, and that
cross-section happened to be around
literary arts and literacy. The Heathman
has a tradition of em bracing books
and literature - they have a great li
brary. So when we talked with them
and shared our vision, they saw a
c o n n ectio n .”
Roosevelt’s publishing center started
two summers ago using some funds
from a federal grant. The center then
teamed with Portland State University ’ s
Ooligan Press to help pay for publishing
expenses and provide mentorship and
leadership.
The center’s next project is sched
uled to be published next year and is a
book about race and identity. The center
is actively looking for submissions for
that publication.
