I have two quick news items to share with visitors to this blog:
First, A new book entitled Fire in the Soul: 100 Poems for Human Rights, soon to be published by New Internationalist in conjunction with Amnesty International, includes my poem “You Get Proud By Practicing.” It also features poets from around the world, including, I’m happy to say, some of my favorite poets including Adrienne Rich, Elizabeth Alexander, Kimiko Hahn, Harryette Mullen, and Margaret Atwood. Click here to pre-order the book.
Also, I have a new address for poetry orders, consulting and training opportunities, and other business correspondence:
