An announcement, a quiz, and a (temporary) farewell

This will likely be my last blog post until March. Reg and I will be in Belize until then, and are not sure about Internet, etc. I was delighted to get an email this week from Sage Hill Press informing me that my poem, “At Three Things the Earth Shakes,” will appear in All We Can Hold: A Collection of Poetry on Motherhood

to be published in spring or early summer of 2016. For my poem to be selected from over 2000 submitted feels pretty good! Now, a quick quiz: Who can identify where the poem’s title comes from?
