Scott on Smack

If you missed this poem from my long history working in the trenches in inner city New Jersey, here it is again, as posted on The 5-2 Crime Poetry blog.

That's the name of my blogspot, but On Location is also the name of my new chapbook of ekphrastic poems coming soon from March Street Press. If you'd like to preview of some of the poems included in the chapbook, three of them are currently posted at http://www.mid.muohio.edu/segue/10/scott.htm.

And a big thank you to Gail Gerwin, Therese Halscheid and Joe Longino, who, on short notice, wrote wonderful blurbs (of course) for the back cover.

Check out all my collages at my website

Got a few minutes to spare? Along with images of my collages, there's info about my books, samples of my poetry, bio information and links to my poems online, at http://www.nancyscott.net/

My reading schedule is winding up for 2011, but 2012 is wide open. If your venue is within an hour or so from Princeton, NJ and you're looking for or you know of a group or organization who is looking for a seasoned poet who will hold the attention of any audience, contact me at nscott29@gmail.com.
