It's my cute little name for the learning I'm pursuing outside of academia. I always thought I would go to grad school, but life had other plans, and I got married and had a baby. I got married to a wonderful man and had a wonderful little baby and I've never looked back since. Now … Continue reading Stay at Home University

Great Book

I'm taking a workshop on prose poetry writing this summer, so I'm doing as much reading about prose poetry and reading prose poetry itself before the workshop starts. This is the particular book chosen for the workshop. It's really good so far. It has some great examples of riveting work, along with essays that teach … Continue reading Great Book
