DESCRIPTION:The free monthly Nebraska Poets Reading Series highlights the talent of Nebraska poets and invites discussion with audience members. All events are free online\, but registration is required to receive an event link. Registration links for each poet’s event and additional details about each poet are available on the Nebraska Poetry Society’s website. \nFrom family and memory to the absurdities of daily life\, Greg Kosmicki’s poetry has been praised for its honesty and openness. His poetry balances humor\, sorrow\, and the mystery of being human. \nGreg Kosmicki has published eight chapbooks and seven full-length collections of poetry with ten different presses. His most recent collection\, The dog has no answers\, was published in September\, 2023\, by Main Street Rag Publishing Co. His 2016 collection\, It’s As Good Here as it Gets Anywhere\, from Logan House Press\, was a finalist for the 2017 High Plains Book Award. Individual poems of his have been published in Paris Review\, New Letters\, Nimrod\, Cimarron Review\, Kansas Quarterly\, Briar Cliff Review\, Laurel Review\, Poetry NOW\, and many others. His poems have been selected to be read on “Writer’s Almanac.” He has twice been awarded an Artist’s Fellowship from the Nebraska Arts Council for his poetry. In 1998\, he founded The Backwaters Press\, which published more than 100 books under his direction\, until it was given to the University of Nebraska Press in 2017 as an imprint of that press.
