A Poetry Book Field Guide
Some cautionary tales in the construction of poetry manucripts brought to you by yours truly: The SEVENTEEN SECTION COLLECTION:  This is a manuscript that hasn’t quite found out what it wants to bring home.

So much stuff to do and I only have a week left! PLUS: it isn’t going to snow while I’m here. Kind of a bummer, but at least walking around outside is tolerable.  Definitely not ready to go back to Fresno anytime soon…

There's a kitty on my lap...
which means I probably won’t get up for a while because cats are at their peak of adorable when sleeping on your lap. Tonight is the last class meeting of the semester. After this, I have to turn in my portfolio to Connie and DONE. The busiest, craziest, most riDONKulous semester of my life is over. Onto the writing next semester… I’ve made it a strict goal to snazz up the back...

Bisexual Barbie
One of ten Barbies is left-handed, another ten percent are lesbian. But it’s hard to keep track of the bisexual ones— their orientation often secret, or if overt, still undetectable. Barbies dress in front of one another and statisticians think nothing of it.  Two Barbies often share a sleeping bag or double bed because there are twice as many Barbies as Kens. Two Barbies live in one...
