July 2008 News

Happy summer!

  • My poetry appears online this summer at terrain.org. Terrain is a twice yearly online journal searching for that interface—the integration— among the built and natural environments, that might be called the soul of place. The journal is one of the most professional online journals I’ve seen, with great navigation and savvy social networking links (reddit, digg, etc.) that techies like me appreciate. I’m also excited to have my first poems online in audio format. Check it out!
  • I’m staying busy reading submissions for Gertrude Press. Our newest issue will be out this fall. Congratulations to our chapbook winners!
  • The Oregon State Poetry Association will hold its Fall Conference in Roseburg in October. Details, plus two new book reviews, in the September issue, guest edited by Celeste Thompson.
  • Finally, on a personal note, I’m looking forward to a busy fall. I’ll be starting school at Marylhurst and get married in September. So if email replies take a little longer than usual, you know why. August promises to be a crazy month!

Best wishes and lots of poetry happiness,

Elizabeth
