The Blurbs! The Blurbs!

Another blog tease!

Today is the last day for my poetry workshop. What a great bunch of students! I'm going to miss teaching here at Colgate.

I think Ecco should've asked Mr. Bill Knott to blurb Paul's third book.

Looking good, Charlie.

STOP THE PRESSES! Steve Fellner was the co-winner of the The Thom Gunn Award for Gay Poetry . Way to go, Steve! No longer a loser! But I'm sure you'll disagree with that statement.

Reading: Michael O’Brien: Sleeping and Waking. Plenty of image candy in the book. And I'm a big boy who loves candy!

Some folks have emailed asking how many classes I will be teaching next fall at Bucknell University. None! Yeah! The Philip Roth Residence in Creative Writing is a four month writing residency. No teaching. I'm there to write and to be a literary presence on campus. A literary presence? No, no, I won't be walking around with a copy of Finnegan's Wake in my hands. And I won't be standing in the middle of the student union shouting out the lines of José Montoya. I will visit English/ Creative Writing classes and meet with students interested in poetry. And I will eat pie.

Poem: Poem for the Adoptive Mother.

a blurb from me
is a K-O-D
kiss of death, that is
...
Colgate, Bucknell, that's success:
if a book of mine could ever find a publisher, i'd want a blurb from you!
—knott with no tease
I dunno, Bill, I think my friend Aaron's book is doing pretty well. He loved his blurb, too...
