Our thanks to the American poet Eileen Sullivan for forwarding this item on to us...

Eileen writes... This came across my desk from the editor of a literary journal here about a reading series she is doing called Free Range Reading. At the end of the announcement she gives this explanation:

"Freerange is a method of literary husbandry where the authors are permitted to write, read, and roam freely instead of being contained in any manner. The principle is to allow the writers as much freedom as possible, to live out their instinctual behaviors in a reasonably natural way, regardless of whether or not they are eventually killed for meat. In practice, there are few regulations imposed on what can be called free range, and the term may be used misleadingly to imply that the writing product has been produced more humanely than it actually has been."
