KTA Hits the Road

We took a quick break from working on Issue 2 of Killing the Angel to visit to the Francis E. Parker Memorial Home in Highland Park, New Jersey. After a morning poetry workshop, residents participated in an open mic poetry session. It was a blast! Click here if you’d like to check out photos of the day. Happy National Poetry Month!

KTA Launches

We had a fantastic turnout for our launch party & reading at the KGB Bar on December 18, 2012. Eight of our first issue contributors came out to read their original work to an enthusiastic audience. Check out the Gallery for photos. Thank you so much to everyone for coming out and making the night a success.

An enthusiastic crowd packs the KGB Bar in NYC for the KTA Launch Reading on December 18, 2012.

Tuesday, December 18, 7-9 PM, KGB Bar at 85 East Fourth Street, NY, NY 10003. See you there!

Sneak Peek for Issue 2

Sneak peek for issue two, which will be available Summer 2013!

We are so honored and proud that Issue 2 of Killing the Angel will feature a poem by England’s distinguished and prolific (not to mention incredibly witty and friendly) poet, Neil Curry. From his website: The poet Neil Curry was born in Newcastle upon Tyne, and now lives in Ulverston in the English Lake District. He read English at Bristol University, then taught at the University of Guelph in Canada and subsequently at secondary schools in England. His verse translations of Euripides, published by Methuen and Cambridge University Press, and in the USA by Doubleday, have been performed in many countries. His poems have appeared in many pamphlets and magazines, and have won several national prizes.

On that note, submissions for Issue 2 are officially open from now through February 1, 2013! Click here for information.

Don’t forget to mark your calendar for our NYC launch party on December 18, 2012, 7-9 PM at the KGB Bar in Manhattan! It’s going to be a great night.
