Each month I post an update called Rewrites on what I'm up to and content I would like to share with you. Most of the links on this post are informational, but a few are affiliate links to help maintain this website. This is the inaugural post of Rewrites. Each month I will share my recent publications, what I am reading, and other content related to writing. Publications:

Haiku: without sunlight a winter flower blooms Issa Poem: "Hope" is the thing with feathers by Emily Dickinson "Hope" is the thing with feathers - That perches in the soul - And sings the tune without the words - And never stops - at all - And sweetest - in the Gale - is heard - And sore must be the storm - That could abash the little Bird That kept so many warm - I've heard it in the chillest land - And on the strangest Sea - Yet - never - in Extremity, It asked a crumb - of me. Writing Encouragement: Make a list of all the things you are passionate about. Your passion will come through in your words. Quote From a Writer: "Instructions for living a life: Pay attention. Be astonished. Tell about it." - Mary Oliver
