We hope you’ve had a great start to your year. We’re excited for our first session at the dome\, and for production team member Melissa’s writing group to be our first feature poets for the year!\n\nThe “No Guilt Writing group” evolved from a course of six weeks on-line Life Writing Workshops run by playwright and novelist\, Hannie Rayson\, and ABC arts journalist\, Michael Cathcart in early 2022. \n\nThe participants of the workshops were committed to writing\, but felt they would benefit from the on-going support of a group to maintain and develop the participants’ writing goals. The group meets online once per month for around one and a half hours.   \nThe first rule of the group is that while celebrating each other’s achievements\, there is to be “No Guilt” when individual writing goals are not met. The group format is flexible\, always adapting to what works best for the participants. Generally\, the group begins with each member sharing their writing and life experiences\, followed by sharing a writing exercise that the group sets for itself each month.   \nOver the years\, the participants have bonded\, writing output has increased and a fascinating journey has occurred\, revealing a varied range of voices and a broad variety of writing goals.\n\nGroup Bios:\n\nKaz Paton \nI have worked in the arts for many years in roles requiring a great deal of writing.  No longer working full time gives me time to return to a creative focus that has had scant attention in recent years – and to brush away the cobwebs from shoe boxes of unfinished stories. \nCarole Branch \nSince retiring\, I have concentrated on writing. I have just completed a piece with Victoria Writers under the banner ‘Streets & Stories – Hidden Characters in the City’\, which will be published in early 2026. \nHeather Hill \nHaving spent the past 40 years living and breathing dance therapy and person-centred practice with people with dementia\, I am in the midst now of co-writing a book on bringing dance to people with dementia. \nGeoff Pankhurst  \nI have always had a fascination with words. The 26 letters of the English language can be arranged to create stories that evoke many moods and images. That’s the attraction of writing for me. I’m currently writing my memoir. I see myself as an educator; a man living with Cerebral Palsy. Over the years I’ve had the opportunity to be published in denominational magazines of the Seventh-Day Adventist Church. My memoir will tell my story of “A Stone In My Shoe.” \nMelissa Gunner \nI have always had an interest in writing. Lately\, I have a particular focus on the accessible\, the ordinary\, the every day and the amusing. In the last few years\, I have been delighted to be part of the “No Guilt Writing Group” to help support my goals to achieve more writing.  I now feel confident to say\, “I am a writer and poet”\, because that is what I do. It has proven very helpful to be part of a supportive group that keeps me accountable with “No Guilt”.

I politely asked him his reason and he stated that as he is retired he only attends free spoken word events. I let him know that our evening is now by donation only and accessible to all and he replied thanks… I then clicked on his link to his poetry and saw how prolific he is and I really loved his poem House by the Sea. I asked him if he’d be interested in being a Feature Poet and the team agreed he’d be great and so here we are! \nKismet! Synchronicity! Co-inside-ences! Fate! Magic! Faerie… \nRussell Boyle Bio: \nRussell Boyle started writing poetry in 1999. He has written five anthologies\, each one published as a PDF\, that can be purchased online using secure PayPal checkout and supplied by email. Some poems in his first three volumes have adult themes and contain sexual language. His published oeuvre comprises 205 poems. He recently retired from his much-loved lifetime career in secondary mathematics. Since then\, his primary focus has been poetry\, performing at more than one hundred and forty open-mic events around Melbourne. His preference is to recite\, rather than read his poems\, as this better enables him to connect with the audience. What he loves most about poetry is the ability to convey powerful\, emotional themes with just a few words. \nHouse by the Sea \nhttps://russellboyle.com/housebythesea.mp3 \n\n  \nPlease note the new start time of 6.15pm for the Poetry Workshop. \n\nDue to the growing popularity of our event we are recommending you arrive in time for the increasingly valuable workshop\, and as it is first in best dressed for Open Mic 8 till 9pm\, latecomers may miss out on performing…\n\nTo ensure as many people as possible are able to share\, we are requesting a short 3 minutes maximum open-mic per person. That’s then about 20 people that get to share… and you can continue to share afterwards over chai.\n\nSpoken Word is an inclusive project.\nEntry and Supper is by donation\, we never turn people away!\nSuggested Donation:\n$15 Full / $10 Concession\n$5 Supper\, $5 Chai\nProgram\n6pm – Doors open/Music\n6.15 – Poetry workshop & open mic\n7.00 – Dinner\n7.30 – Feature poet (12yrs+)\n8.00 – Open mic\n9.00 – Chai & Chat\nCall Andy: 0415 734 744 or Chris: 0414 306 772\nor search Yarra Valley Spoken Word on Facebook.\n\nAnd just a heads up; our December event will be on the first Friday\, 5th December\, due to the fabulous Ecotopia Summer Twilight Market being on the 12th! :D\n\nThat way we get to do both…

SUMMARY:Yarra Valley Spoken Word October 2025 Feature Poet Kai Jensen
DESCRIPTION:The original custodians of the Yarra Valley\, the Wurundjeri people\, didn’t write. Their wisdom travelled through time in songs\, stories and dance.  We acknowledge this land’s indigenous ancestors and elders\, oral historians of the dream-time. This poetry gathering sits on the shoulders of countless generations of wisdom keepers and spoken-word story tellers. \nWelcome to our Yarra Valley Spoken Word Community. \nWe meet at The Dreaming Space Academy at Yarra Valley ECOSS\, Wesburn on the second Friday of the month and welcome you to join us and share your musings. \nOurs is a space to share the power of the spoken word\, be inspired by our community of artists and learn to write and share life’s depths through this life changing art form. \nYarra Valley Spoken Word Friday 10th October 2025 Feature Poet Kai Jensen\nPlease join us in welcoming Kai Jensen as Feature Poet in October!  \nAlthough Kai lived in Melbourne for 14 years\, in 2017 he moved to Bermagui on the NSW Far South Coast. He’s now organising a tour of readings following publication of his first book\, The Zebra Path of Tree Light\, by 5 Islands Press.  \nHe’s had poetry published in many Australasian journals over the years (e.g.\, in Australia\, The Age\, Cordite\, fourW\, Overland\, Southerly\, 34 to 37 Degrees South\, Westerly) and more recently in several North American journals\, including Rattle and Poetry Pacific. But because he worked as a university manager he had to put his poetry on the back burner\, and only since moving to Bermagui has he been able to give it more attention\, send out lots of poetry for publication again\, and finally managing to get a book published. \nHe aims to write poetry that’s enjoyable to read/listen to\, and he takes pride in bringing it to life in performance. He started off as a performance poet in Aotearoa/New Zealand in the 1980s\, before moving to writing more concisely/richly for the page.  \nKai came second in a Melbourne poetry slam competition in 2007 or thereabouts. \nHe continues to explore a range of styles\, from simple personal narrative\, through ekphrastic poems\, surreal/sci-fi poems\, to postmodern poems such as erasure poems\, found text and disjunctive poems – so can tailor a reading to the tastes of an audience. \nHe’s chosen for our Spoken Word the theme of ‘Responses to Art & Artists’ and we are very excited to meet him and experience his work\, sample below. \nThe wild swans at Fairhaven \nFar out on the lake \nthe swans play their mournful flutes \nwhile the light goes \nto wherever the light goes. \nFar out on the lake \nthe swans whine like hounds \nwhile we lie here \nin our kennel of lamplight. \nThe swans\, the black swans improvise \nconstellations of sweet and sour notes \nin their cold\, their night-hushed auditorium\, \nfall silent\, then mourn a little more \nwhile we lie half-listening\, \nhalf-feeling we’ve forgotten something – \nmaybe our other name \nin our other life.\n_________________ \n6-9pm in The Dreaming Space Dome \nat Yarra Valley ECOSS – 711 Old Warburton Hwy\, Wesburn. \nSpoken Word is an inclusive project\, gratefully made possible by sponsorship from Yarra Ranges Council. \nEntry and Supper is by donation\, we never turn people away! \nSuggested Donation: \n$15 Full / $10 Concession \n$5 Supper\, $5 Chai \nProgram – PLEASE NOTE THE NEW START TIME OF 6.15PM. \n6pm – Doors open/Music \n6.15 – Poetry workshop with open mic (be on time to experience the power of the workshop\, latecomers will not be admitted until dinnertime) \n7.00 – Dinner \n7.30 – Feature poet (PG) \n8.00 – Open mic \nCall Andy: 0415 734 744 or Chris: 0414 306 772 \nor search Yarra Valley Spoken Word on Facebook. \nhttps://www.facebook.com/yarravalleyspokenword
