People Say Nice Things About My Poetry
A couple short reviews of recent books.
A couple people left nice reviews of my recent poetry collections, so I thought I’d share…and remind you that I have poetry collections for sale!
Here’s a couple short reviews of Brevity (Nun Prophet Press), a collection of cinquains (five line poems.)
And here’s a review of my collection of bizarre/collage sonnets, Gnarly Thumbs (Anxiety Press).
I hope some of you all will consider checking out one or both of these. And if you have read them, please consider leaving a review; they really help!
They sound excellent. I am slowly reading your first book, whose name I forget how to spell, and it is intriguing. I don’t know any of the work of the poet you’re answering (or translating). I wish I could be more articulate, but I left my copy at work, as I read during my lunch break.
I will definitely be getting these. The sonnets especially interest me as a friend of mine (Jeff Wyman) has published 2 volumes of sonnets. He retired from teaching right and wanted to see if he could write as many sonnets as Shakespeare did. He’s so far out-written Shakespeare by over 100 sonnets! Long live the sonnet!
I’m grateful to poetry for making the world more interesting and helping me see and feel more, and to writers, who have the courage to put their work out into the world.
