National Poetry Month Is Back!

Originally Published: April 01, 2012

April is upon us, and so we’re excited to be hosting another month of poetry conversation and discussion as part of National Poetry Month. As in years past, we’ve invited bloggers and “Craft Work” and “Open Door” writers to engage with each other on a range of topics concerning poetry and to focus on the what, when, where, and why of their writing and performing lives. With the line-up we’ve assembled this year, we know that this month will be lively, insightful, stimulating, and fun. We’re pleased to welcome the following writers:

Alan Gilbert
Amber Tamblyn
