TWO THINGS

First its the begining of the month and once again I ask that if you shop online at Barnes & Noble, Amazon or Powells then I ask you to please access them via the portals on my blog.  Its what keeps this blog running.  Secondly if you want to comment on poetry programming at cons or writers workshops or classes or whatever dont be shy about posting on it or emailing me directly at sgreen@grolen.com.  Also if there is a fellow poet or academic who might be interested in the blog you are welcome to contact me about them and I shall email them if there is a reason you do not want to.  Lastly if you want to add my site to the list of links on your own blogs please feel free to do so.
