Visit the 32 Poems website. We redesigned it. One day, I’ll move this blog over there.

I wish MacDowell would have their parties in Washington, DC. They have them in NY, which makes sense given all the artists live there. Yet and yet.

Congratulations to friend and 32 Poems contributor Erika Meitner. Her book, Ideal Cities, won the National Poetry Series and will be published by Harper Collins.

Someone gave me good advice. Work on it (it=something I care about deeply) and everything else will fall into place. A few weeks after I was told that advice, an unusual email landed in my in box that is part of the everything-falling-into-place category.

I’m 9,000 words into my novel draft.

Of course, use the italics! They look great.

Wow, great news for Erika. Congrats to her and I look forward to reading.

Congrats to you for things falling into place and 9,000 words of your novel draft.

I wanted to check with you that you got my emails about the interviews.
