Happy IWSG Day! Today's post was a bit late today (didn't realize the post was scheduled for 9pm instead of 9am). Anyways, for today's post I talk a bit about upcoming movies and celebratory events. As well as how I'm still battling with storage issues, reading Asian novels and writing inside my head. I've also answered this month's bloghop QOFTM, 'As a writer/author what is something you regret? Or something that you wish you’d done differently in your writing process?'

          In today's post, I talk a bit about how I celebrated my birthday. The 500-piece puzzle I was working on, upcoming events and answer the QOFTM, 'Is there anything you'd like to see changed, added, and/or rearranged about the book publishing industry?'
          
          Stay cool. Stay hydrated. And Happy 4th!

Happy Poem In Your Pocket Day! 
          
          It's the last day of April and National Poetry Month. It's also Poem In Your Pocket Day! 
          
          Today's poem I'm sharing today is a new poet to me. And possibly a new favorite to add to my list of favorite poets. 
          
          Come visit my blog to hear "Down to My Elbows (ending on a line by Shakespeare)" and other poetry by Jose Olivarez. Enjoy!
          
          What poem are you carrying in your pocket today?

Happy National Poetry Month 30th Anniversary III
          It's the third week of National Poetry Month. And there's only ten days left. For this week, since I was unable to choose one, I'm sharing both poetry by Emma Lazarus and WB Yeats. 
          
          Come visit my blog to find out what these two poems mean to me. 
          
          Thanks for stopping by!

Happy IWSG Day! Happy National Poetry Month! And Happy 30th Anniversary!
          
          This month to celebrate poetry month, I'm sharing five poems that have impacted my life in some way. The first one shared on IWSG day, is The Hearse Song.
          
          I've also answered the QOFTM, 'If you have a playlist (or could put one together) that either gets you in the groove to write or fits with one of your books, what is it? What type of music or what songs?'
          
          See you every Monday this month for next four poems. And Poem In Your Pocket Day on April 30th!
