Congratulations to our winner of the February Shannon Clarke.  Shannon literally walked in to our event held at the Easton Public Market.  She gave a talk about her best friend.  What was astonishing was that Shannon never participated in a story slam before and had no speaking experience.  Shannon will be invited to our Grand Slam to compete for the Grand Slam trophy to be held in November.  Stay tuned for Shannon’s video.
