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.
I will read the Lisel Mueller poem to my mom. She's almost blind and today is her 99th birthday.
Thank you for these, they are wonderful. Mueller's in particular; I predict it will stay with me.
