how are you celebrating – Webbish6 https://webbish6.com Jeannine Hall Gailey's Poetry Blog Mon, 31 Aug 2015 02:47:29 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 44757611 Welcome to National Poetry Month! https://webbish6.com/welcome-to-national-poetry-month-2/ https://webbish6.com/welcome-to-national-poetry-month-2/#comments Mon, 02 Apr 2012 00:54:00 +0000 http://webbish6.com/welcome-to-national-poetry-month-2/ April is not only National Poetry Month, but my birthday month, and this year, because of job interviews (!!) and house business, even crazier than usual. I wish all of you writing a poem-a-day luck. I wrote a poem two days ago for Unexplained Fevers based on one of Deborah Scott’s new paintings that I feel pretty good about, but I’m not attempting the poem-a-day this time around.

I’m also going to do the book giveaway deal, but I just haven’t decided on my second book yet. So many to choose from! So stay tuned…

I’m reading with a large group of Seattle-area poets at Hugo House this Wednesday night to celebrate A Face to Meet the Faces, the persona poetry anthology. Later this month I’ll be teaching a teen class on haiku, haibun and anime (here’s the poster) in Redmond.

What are you doing to celebrate this poetry month? And what are you sending me for my birthday? I could use some down-payment money, hardwood flooring and furniture…:)
