Portland and Oregon seems a hotbed for writers, poets-----What makes this place work for them.....and what are some of the problems they encounter getting their work recognized, published, etc from Portland. What's happening with the small independent presses and those who "self-publish: and our great PSU Ooligan Press and PSU's program to educate publishers. Talk with people like Jan Baross---videographer, screen writer, novelist and painter are working across many media. Penelope Schott award winning poet, and many many more. Margaret Chula---haiku poet, and on and on and on.
