My house hunting search criteria is to find little house on the edge of something

Do you keep a journal or diary? Would you like to?

I invite you try out the ancient and contemporary form of tanka (as transformed by poet Harryette Mullen) as a way of documenting something of your own intimate experience of these extraordinary times.

My clients are headed to AWP today, so I’m using the lull to work on my own book. New themes revealing themselves as I work & finish up the essay. #collage #visualpoetry

And here’s some sea #foliage for #printpromptmonday, in the form of a linocut bookcover I did a while back. Each seaweed is its own block so the pattern is different on each book.
