April has not been a complete poetry bust for me. Yes, it’s true that I didn’t write anything this past month except official reports for school and a presentation for a conference. I may have a scribble or two in my journal that may be worth saving. But that’s it. Still, in the past week or so, I got three acceptances via email, so somehow, I still feel like a working poet. I’m especially excited about my poem, “The Union Steward Switches Back to Third Shift” which will be published in Motif’s thematic book/journal about work later on this year.
The time for entering for a chance to win a poetry book from the Big Poetry Giveaway is running out. On Sunday, May 1, I will choose three winners. If you haven’t dropped me a note, stop by here, and take a chance!
