Multidisciplinary
creative, Lynn Gentry, who has entered his seventh year of writing for patrons
will officially retire from performance based poetry on October 7th, 2015.
Gentry will now only be found writing in public spaces on very rare occasions.
Instead he plans to pursue print publication opportunities, brand-new
independently produced online content, and exciting collaborations that cannot
yet be released to the public. In order to reach out to patrons before his
retirement, Gentry will be accepting a challenge to author seven hundred poems
in just seven days! This online event will begin at 7AM Wednesday, October 7th and
last through 7AM on Tuesday, October 13th. Similarly to the PayPal #poemgrams
campaign (2014), he will be available around the clock to accept patron
requests. Patrons can reach the poet via the request form or live chat feature
on his website, lynngentry.com. In the spirit of his performance work, all are
welcome to request a custom poem on the subject of their choice for a
donation.
