Yay! I’ll have three haiku in the upcoming Haiku Northwest 25th Anniversary Anthology. I know that we will be having some events in late June, so I might get a chance to read the poems.  I look forward to that.

My Wonderful Writing Weekend

4/22/2013

Yes, I know a bit too much alliteration in the title…but anyways…I mentioned in my last post that I was very busy this weekend. 


I was and wasn't.

I enjoyed a weekend full of writing and friends.

I attended the SCBWI (Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators) Western Washington Conference. I met up with some people, I hadn't seen in a year or more. I also met new friends. 



I learned that it’s time to submit my work aggressively.

I made a promise, to a fellow writer that I’ll be submitting like crazy. So I have until May 20th to give her a list of places that I choose. 



I also came up with a new story, and I’m looking forward to writing it.

I have a fun challenge ahead!

Busy Weekend...A couple Of Days Late

4/21/2013

On Thursday, the 18th, it was National Poem In Your Pocket Day. That’s where you take a poem you’ve written or a favorite poem, put it in your pocket and share it with others.

For my class, I wrote a poem for each of my students. It described them and some of their favorite things. They put those poems in their pocket (or left them on the floor). I ended up printing out some extras but that’s okay. My students created some of their own poems for friends, family members, themselves, and even me.

Overall the children had a blast sharing poems with each other.

My First Published Haiku

4/9/2013

My first published haiku will appear in The Haiku Society Of America 2012 Members’ Anthology. That’s a mouth full.

I submitted this poem along with others about a year ago. After some delay the Anthology is due to come out in about a month and a half.

Here’s the poem:

snow flurries float
with autumn leaves--
i rest my rake against a tree

At first, I wanted critique something I wrote over a year ago, but instead I’ll just let it be…

And enjoy it…

National Poetry Month, but it is National Autism Awareness Month: http://www.autism-society.org/about-us/national-autism-awareness-month/

I've taught several children with autism, so I wanted to post about this too.

We had an excellent presentation about children with autism at our school about a month ago…

March Haiku Northwest

4/1/2013

0 Comments

 
I went to our Haiku Northwest meeting on Thursday. We are planning the 25th anniversary of Haiku Northwest with an anthology. I plan to submit some of my poems, so we’ll see. I continue to write a haiku a day, sometimes more. It’s a lot of fun to write and read other people’s poems.

Here’s the link to the Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/home.php?ref=logo#!/pages/NaHaiWriMo/108107262587697

This is a few days late, I couldn’t update my blog. The solution, from Weebly Support, was to download Google Chrome.
