Greenville Humane Society Urgent Need of Foster Homes
Aug 14 all-day
Greenville Humane Society

We’ve all experienced being sick and we can all agree it’s not any fun. Maybe your body hurts or you’re feeling run down. All you want to do is lay down and relax at home. Within a few days, most of us start to feel better. We get back to our normal schedules. Our shelter animals don’t have that luxury. When they’re sick, all they want is a comfortable home to relax in. A family that will help nurse them back to health. Reassurance that everything is going to be alright.

We have 106 sick animals that we’re caring for at this time. With limited staff and resources, we’re doing everything we can to make every single one of them comfortable. They’re not feeling well. Many have runny noses. Some are coughing. Others are undergoing difficult heartworm treatments. It’s hard on them. But also hard on us. Our team works day in and day out caring for each animal like they’re our own. With 106 animals, you can imagine that becomes incredibly difficult and exhausting.

So we’re begging for help. We are in desperate need of foster homes to help us nurse these sick babies back to health. We even provide everything you will need for your foster pet – food, leash, collar, toys, bed, crate – anything that will make life easier so you can focus on helping them recover faster.

Whether you’re able to help for a few days, a week, or two weeks – we need you. We’re sending out this desperate plea for help. It’s been a very long time since we’ve hit a capacity like this in The Healing Place, and we need our community’s support to continue saving as many lives as possible. Please consider temporarily opening your home and heart to a shelter animal, there is no better time than now.

Writing Workshop: Telling Poems with Eric Nelson
Sep 12 @ 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm
online

The oldest and most common advice poets hear is “show don’t tell.” But what does that mean, exactly? What is the difference between showing and telling? Why is “showing” better? Most of us write poems to tell readers something, to share our ideas. Many poets—from as far back as John Donne to as recent as Stephen Dunn–do a lot of telling in their poems. So why are we always advised not to tell? In this workshop we will discuss these questions. In the process, we will look at a few well-known poems to see how–or if—they show rather than tell, and we will do some writing exercises that may help us arrive at some conclusions about this persistent advice.

This workshop is open to writers of all skill levels and is a fun way to find inspiration from a new prompt or revise current work. It is hosted by the Friends of Carl Sandburg at Connemara and will use Microsoft Teams for the virtual connection. Sign up to attend the workshop at workshop link

Eric Nelson’s most recent poetry collection, Horse Not Zebra, won both a Da Vinci Eye Award for cover art and an Honorable Mention in Poetry from the 2023 Eric Hoffer Book Awarda. His poems have appeared in many journals, including Poetry, The Sun, The Oxford American, and The Missouri Review. Among his awards are the 2014 Gival Press Poetry Book Award for Some Wonder; the 2004 X.J. Kennedy Poetry Award for Terrestrials, chosen by Maxine Kumin; the Arkansas Poetry Award for The Interpretation of Waking Life (1991); the Split Oak Press Chapbook Award for The Twins (2009); the Georgia Author of the Year Award (2005), and fellowships to the Hambidge Center for the Arts and the Virginia Center for Creative Arts. He taught writing and literature courses at Georgia Southern University for twenty-six years before retiring in 2015 and moving to Asheville, where he lives with his wife, Stephanie Tames, and teaches in the Great Smokies Writing Program. www.ericnelsonpoet.com.
