I will be back in the classroom. I promised myself that July would be school free, and I have kept that promise. But, when August rolls around, I have to start preparing for the new semester, especially when I am teaching a class I have never taught before.
In the meantime, I have been working and revising poems. This summer I have “finished” seven poems (I won’t get into the debate about whether or not a poem is ever really finished), and I have at least five more that are in the works. I wanted to write twenty poems during the summer months, so I still have my work cut out for me. However, yesterday I did send out a submission packet, something I haven’t done in a month. It felt good.
