I'm sure that the editors of Cider Press Review could not wait to wash their hands of her. CPR is a great magazine and it's a shame that a self-righteous prig like Ms. Brown ever made it through the contest door. I assume that her manuscript did not overly reflect her personality. She chooses to exercise editorial control of comments appearing on her blog so any visitor can only expect to hear the voices of true Stacy Lynn believers. Most of these swear they will never submit work to CPR. I can't think of a better reason to buy the next issue.

I've never written anything by hand, except when I was in high school and we didn't have a computer. My handwriting is brutal, and brutally slow. If society and the electric collapse, you don't have to worry about me becoming Poet Laureate of the Thunderdome. Karen--maybe the different is that poetry is more personal and introspective? Handwritten notes do seem much more that. I only write on the computer. I’ve never written anything by hand, except when I was in high school and we didn’t have a computer.

May many good words flow from it. I wrote my whole ms on computer, as well as my co-authored book. Poetry's a combo of longhand and keyboard, and VizPo, natch, by hand. Happy, healthy creative New Year! What a truly awesome gifts. May many good words flow from it.

I guess you could say we are "mission control". I'm pretty sure anything you and Megan come up with will be more adventurous than that. :) Jack and I are going out for sushi and then coming home and watching movies while all of our kids are out doing different things.

By the time the poem hits the screen, it's usually in the final stages... However, now that I am thinking about it, when it comes to prose (book reviews, academic essays, etc..) I do almost all my writing on the computer screen. I'm not sure why I approach writing differently. I’m a bit behind the times — I still handwrite my drafts of my poems.
