Monthly experimental poetry reading series Flywheel kicked off the New Year's events at McNally Robinson Calgary last night with the clatter of typewriter keys. This riotous event featured the Calgary Typing Club producing work on the spot for an audience-interactive reading.

Every month since November 2003, filling Station magazine's Flywheel Reading Series has brought poetry, prose, music, lectures and performance to the heart of downtown Calgary. It's a place for first-time readers to share the stage with professional authors and for Calgary audiences to see their favourite writers alongside the next generation of literary superstars.
