Groundwaters Publishing publishes an anthology every year, of art, poetry, fiction and nonfiction by creative individuals, who range from local to our corner of Oregon to all over the world. When the annual book is released, the publishing company hosts a gala at Applegate Regional Theater so that the authors and poets can read their work to a live audience. This year, well... a different plan was needed. In the first of several parts, the authors of Groundwaters are reading their work for the podcast. It's not "live," as we used to title the event, but it's as close as we're going to get in this pandemic world of late 2020.

Groundwaters, the publishing company, has proven to be a resilient business, from its inception as a quarterly literary magazine to a full-blown publishing entity. Pat Edwards and Resilient Podcast Network host Jennifer Chambers are pleased to present this stellar, eclectic collection of talent from around the world.
