I've been thinking about where I want to take my new blog, "The Betty Blog," now that I've finished posting "Betty." What I'd like to do is to publish poetry on it; but not all mine. I've started publishing more obscure, less-web-accessible poetry…

A great intro to the subject: clear, well-written, covered most of the bases AFAICS. I especially enjoyed your three warnings at the bottom: they're very good advice for the new reader, who often tries to write traditional forms first thing. Thanks…

I recently completed and blogged a 3,000-line "poem" (scare quotes because some might say it isn't one). I'm quite excited about it, because it's like nothing I've written before. I'd be interested in reads and reactions. Please visit: The Betty Bl…

A very good analysis of the act of writing, you are a great poet as well as a great teacher . . . Some say the advent of poetry crashed with the coming of industrialization, the world was cast as the machine, and the poem morphed into a new and brok…

Call for submissions

I've been thinking about where I want to take my new blog, "The Betty
Blog," now that I've finished posting "Betty." What I'd like to do is
to publish poetry on it; but not all mine.

I've started publishing more obscure, less-web-accessible poetry by
Wallace Stevens, preparatory to putting up his "Notes Toward a Supreme
Fiction" in February and "The Man With the Blue Guitar" in March. (I
posted Supreme Fiction onto usenet last April as my NaPo project, and
I plan to do the same with Blue Guitar… Continue

crafted in lines bold and free
in hollows and grooves
and swirls and knots:
a distorted body —
a soul tormented?

Or is the story nature tells
far from what my eyes do see?
For beauty lies within the heart
and sings a different melody,
Those crafted grooves
that make me shudder
were earned by life’s experience;
