Since the mid l990's Mary McGinnis has hosted poetry writing at her residence. "People come and go; there are multiple writing permutations over 15 years. Published writers and blossoming writers come and have a good time together after a full meal and chocolate." The reading at Johnsons of Madrid is the first time the group has read their works publicly. Each writer will read their own free verse with occasional classical poetic forms.

Works of independent origins as well as works created while in the group will be read, along with group shenanigans including group poems, an exquisite corpse, pantoums, haikus and psychic resonance.
