The Poetic Pursuit of Juliet Cook - My Updated Website!

I got VERY frustrated and upset for many hours when I accidentally deleted part of my own website and couldn't figure out how to restore it. Despite my serious frustration, I then spent several more hours working on updating it. Instead of trying to re-do my Home page the way it was before, I made it different and it might look even better now (or at least different).

Here is my newly updated website - https://julietcook.weebly.com/

Among the updates, the Home page now includes information about and a link to the NEW Blood Pudding Press poetry chapbook, "Short Poems of Violence and Chickens" by Juliet Cook and Darryl Shupe.

And also, here is another link to "Short Poems of Violence and Chickens" - https://www.etsy.com/listing/1335251323/new-short-poems-of-violence-and-chickens

Thank you very much to Fox and Cee and Agape Editions!*** "This body makes me increasingly uncomfortable.The escalating scale.The fat with a watered down cavern inside.The loosening tissue with fish gills drying out.The hagfish orifices turning into fossils.I can handle my whitening hair, butsoon I won’t be able to swim very faraway from deterioration."the beginning of my poem, "Fish Sticks With Hot Flashes", which appears in this new issue
