The paid-subscriber version of The Sharpener includes weekly installments of craft pieces, approaches to writing problems, topics in contemporary publishing for writers, and biographical features on poets I consider important.
...gotta say that the Padgett poem is the perfect example of a poem that starts out so flat-toned that you just thing "it's bad" for a second and then it ends--well, like it ends.
Russell Edson! LOVE. And yes, coffee, coffee, coffee.
