JANUARY NEWSLETTER

Greetings and Salutations!

We trust that everyone has been enjoying the warmth of the holiday season, despite the blustery weather from coast to coast! As always, Copus brings good news that we guarantee will put a blanket around your heart and feed your soul.

1. Soulful Sundown gig this Sunday
2. Copus asked to host Internet radio show
3. Copus catalog (try try try again!)

1. SOULFUL SUNDOWN GIG THIS SUNDAY.
Copus has been asked to a return engagement at the Soulful Sundown service this Sunday at the Unitarian Church in San Francisco. This has to be one of the best-kept secrets in the Bay Area (but not for long)! Hosted by visionary/artist/coordinator Kymberly Jackson, the hour-long service features some of the finest artists around intermingled with thoughtful, spiritual messages presented by various members of the Unitarian community. It's a great opportunity for some quiet reflection and a renewal of hope in troubled times. 1187 Geary @ Franklin, 5-6pm. Free admission (basket passed for voluntary contributions).

2. COPUS ASKED TO HOST INTERNET RADIO SHOW.
Some of you caught the show on December 11th when Royal and Wendy were interviewed by the exuberant Scott Z of www.artistfirst.com. This is one of the first Internet Radio Networks offering independent artists worldwide distribution. Apparently, they are enjoying much success as their listenership doubles each month and several national sponsors have signed on (Office Max, Excedrin, A&E, Super 8 Motels).

Host Scott Z was so impressed with the Copus CD, Later Than You Think, that Wendy and Royal were asked to host an ongoing radio show to present the best of the spoken word and music talent coming out of San Francisco today. The first two shows will be recorded live on January 3rd and 10th at the Copus studio in the Sunset. In addition to featuring Copus, of course, poets Delia Tomino Nakayam, Jamal Israel, Craig Easley, and Leslie Simon will be in the house presenting their powerful words to the world. We'll let you know when these first two shows will be aired. We will also feature recorded material directly from our catalog of poets and composers (www.copuscatalog.com). Check us out!

If you have a referral of a quality poet or an independent musical ensemble for a future radio show, please email: info@copuscatalog.com.

3. COPUS CATALOG.
Our last newsletter announced the publication of our online catalog of poetry and independent music, as well as the latest informational technology to assist artists and entrepreneurs in growing Internet businesses. Unfortunately, the very afternoon we emailed our announcement, the ISP (Verisign) went down. Many of you contacted us regarding this and we apologize for your (and our!) frustration. Everything's perfect now, however, so please take a moment to check it out. You won't be sorry! http://www.copuscatalog.com.

Wishing you health and prosperity in 2003!

Wendy + Royal
