Poems & That

Hello, I will write about poetry and the lessons I have learned about myself and the world around me since becoming a poet. I am not qualified to write about the craft and techniques of poetry so this focuses on the stories and connections and lessons learned. I sometimes will write about other things - ‘& that’, part of my writing here. I may sometimes share a poem. My free newsletter is sporadic and as when I get time and feel I have something worth sharing.

Paid subscribers will also get a once a month newsletter, ‘Little Wonder’ where I write about little slithers of wonder that showed up in day to day life during that month and will include a poem of the month.
