Even the best writer needs a prompt sometimes, just a little goose to the subconscious to get the engine purring. Tod Caviness, former host of the long-running but now-defunct spoken-word series Speakeasy, is here to give Orlando’s poets that goose: Unable to stay away from the stand-up-and-tell-a-tale scene, he’s back with a new monthly series. The Bohemian Woods promises a current-events twist – writers will interpret the news of the day as “satirical shorts, erotic poetry … or none of the above.” Local talent for the January debut of the series includes noted swag-possessors Ashley Inguanta, Jesse Bradley, Jared Silvia, Trevor Fraser and Robbi Ramirez. Litlando, you’ve been warned.
