Subscribe to The Sharpener
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.
All wonderful.
Is the Old's poem from Stag's Leap? I have it but it's at home and I'm at work. I also love her Odes as she is particularly skilled in writing about the body. I love the ending of her poem.
