Puckett Publishing offers a selection of musicals, plays, songs and poetry, all written by Chuck Puckett. So, go get a cup of coffee or a glass of wine, make yourself comfortable and take a look around. Maybe read a play or a musical. Read a poem. Listen to some tunes. Have a swell time. And if anything strikes your fancy, send an email and let me know what you think. I'd really like to hear from you.

Poem-a-Day, April 2009

I participated in a "poem-a-day" exercise during the month of April. Sponsored by Writer's Digest, and hosted by Robert Lee Brewer, the poets wrote a poem each day, a poem suggested by a prompt from Mr. Brewer. If you're into poetry, these (and others of mine) can be found on the Poetry page. They're also available on my blog: The Years of Being.

"Tabernacle" Presented at Historic Camp Meeting

Hartselle Camp Meeting in Hartselle, Alabama was the setting for a recent production of "Tabernacle", a musical set in an old-time camp meeting, where old and new clash, culturally and musically.

The play was directed by Carol Puckett, and proceeds from the two performances (Friday and Saturday, July 25-26) went to benefit the new HCMA youth dormitory.
