About this Event

James Aaron Snow is a Southern revisionist poet, crafting words into weapons for over three decades. He writes from the framework of a Social Work education (MSW) and wellspring of experience in the nonprofit sector. His goal is to stir the indifferent, agitate the bigoted, and be a light in this dark world. He is currently seeking a publication home for his first collection, “pig’s blood and blackberries.”


A personal poetic journey narrating a journey starting in the Deep South and eventually calling the Shenandoah Valley home. FIRST poetry reading in Winchester. Includes discussion time.
