I'd like to describe myself as a story-teller, a dreamer, a die-hard romantic and lover of all animals (not necessarily in that order).

Books are my first love. I don't read books, I pretty much consume them. When I am not reading or sleeping (I am part-cat) I am probably in my kitchen, experimenting with different dishes.

I write because it's a compulsion. Because if I don't, I'll cease to exist. And I don't say this to be dramatic. It's a simple truth.

I'd love to hear from my readers and fellow authors. Any feedback/suggestions/questions are welcome. ...more

Chicken Stew

Hello friends,
Yes, I admit I thought I'd never write again. Probably. It may be apathy or plain, old laziness. But I somehow convinced myself not to let this blog die because I still love to cook and I still love to share my recipes with the world. Maybe, my dream of opening a pop-up restaurant will never materialize or maybe it will. Only time can tell. But in the meanwhile, we can have this, a t Read more of this blog post »

No pretensions: just poetry. Stop by, recommend books, offer up poems (excerpted), tempt us, taunt us, tell us what to read and where to go (to read No pretensions: just poetry. Stop by, recommend books, offer up poems (excerpted), tempt us, taunt us, tell us what to read and where to go (to read it!) Goodreads honors wordsmiths: poets and poetry promoted and prompted here. ~~~ "Poetry is the synthesis of hyacinths and biscuits." -- Carl Sandburg “God has a brown voice, as soft and full as beer.” —Anne Sexton On Clouds – “…what primitive tastes the ancients must have had if their poets were inspired by those absurd, untidy clumps of mist, idiotically jostling one another about…” —Yevgeny Zamyatin “If the poet wants to be a poet, the poet must force the poet to revise. If the poet doesn’t wish to revise, let the poet abandon poetry and take up stamp-collecting or real estate.” —Donald Hall “Poetry is a rich, full-bodied whistle, cracked ice crunching in pails, the night that numbs the leaf, the duel of two nightingales, the sweet pea that has run wild, Creation’s tears in shoulder blades.” —Boris Pasternak “Wanted: a needle swift enough to sew this poem into a blanket.” —Charles Simic “Language is a cracked kettle on which we beat out tunes for bears to dance to, while all the time we long to move the stars to pity.” —Gustave Flaubert “Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It’s that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that’s what the poet does.” —Allen Ginsberg. ~~~~~ Amy King, Moderator Amy King is the recipient of the 2015 Winner of the WNBA Award (Women’s National Book Association). Her latest collection, The Missing Museum, is a winner of the 2015 Tarpaulin Sky Book Prize.
