Brag Book

Last week was a feast of acceptances from qarrtsiluni, Verse Wisconsin, Apollo's Lyre, and Quill & Parchment, and three poets have offered to do reviews of On Location, which is amazing, as I had much less luck with my previous books, although Journal of New Jersey Poets may be reviewing Detours & Diversions in its 2012 issue.

I'm flattered that Carolina Morales has asked me to do a blurb for the back cover of her latest chapbook. You know with her work you are on a ride into the macabre, when the title is Dead Monster. Great poems.

I visited my 10x10 collage at Artworks in Trenton. I can't make the opening reception. The exhibition is a fundraiser for the organization. Over a 100 artists were given 10x10 inch canvases to create their work, and some of the work is really amazing. The idea is to raise money by selling each canvas for $100, split the proceeds with the artist, or ask the artist to donate his/her cut to Artworks, or, if not sold, donate the work to be sold through the Artworks online shop. The show runs for December and I think into January. I'm really bad at remembering when show are over and work needs to be picked up, but in this case, mine is theirs all the way.
