Allyson Whipple commented on the blog post 'Thought for the Day'
That's a great quotation, and a reminder to get out and live as much as possible. Poetry is not written in a vacuum.

Artistic Expression in Egypt, Post-Revolution

Egypt may not be the country that first comes to mind when you combine the words "suppression" and "artistic freedom" - that honor most often goes to China - but as the documentary The Noise of Cairo (from Germany-based scenesfrom) shows, in the years preceding the Arab Spring, the dictatorship of Hosni Mubarak used all the means available to stifle creative freedom, violently punishing artists who raised their voices in protest. . . .Learn more about this wonderful new film:…See More

Saturday Sharing (My Finds Are Yours)

If you've come in from the cold but still have energy to expend, head over to New York Bound Books to browse selections relating to New York; test your mission-oriented game skills with "Pheon", a multi-media alternate-reality game; try your hand at text-analysis at WordSeer; listen to PennSound Radio; or watch a visualization of the Prelude from Bach's Cello Suite No. 1. Then go download a poetry app. You'll find links for all of these suggestions in today's new edition of Saturday Sharing.…See More

Some of the best moments, for me as a writer, are the ones in which something I write triggers a very moving response. Thank you for yours.

Maureen, I will say yes, tentatively. I'm on the road right now and will get back to Monterey late tomorrow night after having been away for 4 months. I'll need to let the dust settle for several days to figure out my plans for the next couple of months. So yes, pencil me in and I will do my very best. I'd love to be there. Nicky

I always look forward to your tweets and your blog posts, so I indeed had a glimpse of your poetry.  Now that I've read Neruda's Memoirs, my admiration is all the greater. Seriously -- it's a very impressive collection that resonates with heart and skill, not to mention the undercurrents of music and art. Just sent out a tweet.  And, in the spirit of National Poetry Month, I think you'll appreciate this recent post of mine  -- Keepsake.

You know how much I've been enjoying your poems --  and your tweets about other poets, etc.  Now I get to read through your collection, something I'm really looking forward to. And thanks so much for reading my 'letter' on Cathy Kozak's blog. I like what she generates around here . . .

Cris, I started writing when I finally believed in myself enough and allowed my voice to emerge and trust the process. The piece I'm working on is a one-woman show about mental illness and it was bubbling under the surface for years. It was…
