Monday Must Read! Karen Paul-Holmes, Untying the Knot

Another poetry house concert to tell you about from this fabulous weekend, but in the spirit of this whole adventure of getting more poetry out into the world, I’m going to start a lil sumpin-sumpin here weekly, promoting other contemporary poets out there making the world beautiful with their words!

I’m gonna post links etc for fabulous poets out there in the world right now, a post I’m calling

Monday Must Read!

This week, meet Karen Paul-Holmes, author of Untying the Knot, from Aldrich Press, a memoir in poetry, telling the story of the end of long marriage and the healing that follows.

Tom Lux says this lovely book is written with “grace, humor and self-awareness and without a dollop of self-pity,” and William Wright says the book “possesses the potential to teach us ways to navigate and ultimately transcend the difficulties of divorce and the feelings of loss and grief such division engenders.”

Karen, in support of other writers, also hosts a critique group in Atlanta and a Writers’ Night Out in the Blue Ridge Mountains. You can see more about Karen and Untying the Knot at the following links
