Cracked Walnut is in the business of literary readings. We organize readings in traditional and non traditional spaces in the Twin Cities Metro Area to procure a love for spoken literature, community and creativity. 'Satish Jayaraj has created a unique, extraordinary reading series,... This reading series crosses genre lines, honors all ages and nationalities, and operates out of a remarkable and varied set of reading venues. The Cracked Walnut Reading Series has been created with hard work and dedication, and has been buoyed and blessed by Satish Jayaraj's steady energy... Some of the Cracked Walnut Readings are free-form, with each writer shaping his or her performance based on their newest work... (they) are rich, diverse, fun, moving, and unlike other readings I've attended for the past forty years. Satish Jayaraj has done the difficult work of creating and then sustaining this new series, and I hope we will be able to sustain and grow his vision as the years go forward.' paraphrased from (http://www.crackedwalnutreadings.org/testimonials.html) Deborah Keenan Poet, Professor in The Creative Writing Programs of Hamline University Core Faculty for The Loft, a center for writers
