New Interview at Poemeleon and New Horizons
There’s a new interview with me up for the Habitual Poet at Poemeleon here:
Interview with Jeannine Hall Gailey
Had a good visit with my folks, with perfect NorCal weather, vines turning red, lots of wine tasting and touring parks in the sun, going out and looking at the Harvest-est moon. My Dad actually read Reb’s two-part talk about poetry publishing and we talked about the business models of poetry presses. I’ve talked about starting a press for a long time but haven’t quite gotten around to it yet, mostly because of the financial difficulties of it.
Glenn was successful in finding us a new apartment back up in Seattle, kind of out-in-the-countryish – it’s a little cheaper the farther you get from the city, of course – but a nice-looking, newish place. We’re hoping to settle down and buy sometime in the next couple of years; if you follow my blog, you’ll see we’ve moved so much that you might wonder if I have some kind of addiction to the act of moving, but no, we’re just looking for a good place to call home.
I’m reading in San Francisco a week or so before we move at Litquake on October 9, so let me know if you want to get together while I’m in the city!
