This year I’m once again celebrating National Poetry Month. I’ve been contributing a few poems in an online poetry group on gaia.com called, Empowered by Poetry. John D. Evans, the group’s facilitator, has put together a blog talk radio show where he will be interviewing a few of the contributing poets on the show. Well, I’m one of the poets that will be interviewed! (here’s me screeching with delight and doing the happy dance).
I’ve been writing these poems and kind of squirreling them away, but now I have this fantastic opportunity to share my work with the world. So, I have decided to collect all of my scattered poems into a book. This way, I will be able say that I am a published poet when I am on the show. How awesome is that?
So, this will be a banner national poetry month for me. While I probably won’t be writing a poem a day like I did last April, I will be celebrating in the most fantastic way ever–by getting published.
Mark you calendar for April 20th at 8pm for my appearance on the Black Author’s Network Radio Show. Visit the Black Pearls Magazine for more details about the other featured poets.
I’ve also got a new article up on the, From a Writer’s POV Network web site. Please go take a peek.
Things are hopping here. The universe is expanding and I’m taking it all in. Stay tuned for details about my first volume of poetry.
