Those of us here at Rock & Sling are pleased as punch that our editor, Thom Caraway, has just been named the first poet laureate of Spokane.
In this role, Thom “will serve as an ambassador for Spokane’s literary community, presenting his work publicly several times a year in an effort to encourage interest in poetry,” explains an article the Spokesman Review.
It’s an honor well deserved. Our heartiest congratulations, Thom!
