Blog Hopscotch: The Tour Continues

Today the tour of blogs by writers/artist/musicians continues.  Let's toss our pebble and hop from one to ten and back, trying not to hit any of the lines. Dianne K. Salerni goes first.  She's the author of The Eighth Day , the first in a thrilling new trilogy of Middle Grade adventures, and also of two historical YA novels, The Caged Graves and We Hear The Dead are YA historical.    Here's her blog post. Next up is poet Amy Lemmon, my longtime friend and the author of the collections Saint Nobody , Fine Motor , and, in collaboration with Denise Duhamel, Enjoy Hot or Iced: Poems in Conversation and a Conversation .  I'll be sharing a poem by Amy later this week.  In the meantime, though, click here to visit her blog post.

Photo lifted from http://myballito.co.za/tips-travelling-abroad/ Poet Anna M. Evans recently invited me to take part in a virtual tour of writers/artists/musicians who also happen to blog. Our mission?  Introducing readers to blogs they might not otherwise encounter.   Here's Anna. Her poems have appeared in the  Harvard Review , Atlanta Review , Rattle, American Arts Quarterly, and 32 Poems. She gained her MFA from Bennington College, and is the editor of the Raintown Review . Recipient of Fellowships from the MacDowell Artists' Colony and the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts, and winner of the 2012 Rattle Poetry Prize Readers' Choice Award, she currently teaches at West Windsor Art Center and Richard Stockton College of NJ. Her new sonnet collection, Sisters & Courtesans , is available from White Violet Press.  Visit Anna online here .  I'll be featuring a poem from Sisters & Courtesans  later this week.  *** ...
