Katie Wirsing's word drawings pour from a channel through her body, linking heart, brain and soul in one wide-open, permalinked thoroughfare to her mouth. But that pretty mouth never eschews any issue, from libido to loss to Grandma and dancing.

Busy Katie's team won the National Poetry Slam in 2006, having been a member of four semifinalist National Poetry slam teams. She was Denver city slam champ in 2007, and as well as representing the city at the Women of the World Poetry Competition, she went on to do the same at the Individual World Poetry Slam Competition - twice.

She's appeared on Dyke TV, NPR, Femme Fatale magazine, the BBC and countless local radio stations, as well as being the poetic voice on a national commercial for Kasassa Banking.

Finally, touring internationally with Buddy Wakefield and Andrea Gibson, along with opening for Saul Williams, Sage Francis, The Flobots and legendary lesbian comedian Suzane Westenhoefer, has taken her brand of storytelling from coast to coast, proving her fluency in the language of living is universally appreciated.
