"Harvest of the New Millenium" will be released by Cyberwit.net of Allahabad, India in October of 2005. It will include my poem "The Distance Between." Check out my new poetry posting to read this one.
I'm going to try to keep two blogs, and perhaps this will keep my mind and proverbial pen flowing.
I have a personal deadline to have a mansucript of my poetry and essasys ready and send it in to a yet-to-be-decided self publishing company before the end of October. A friend, "Ghetto Gandhi" andf I made promises to each other about what we would accomplish in a year. He has a job now. He's done his part.
I always procrastinate, but that's just my nature. I work best under pressure. I think six weeks is a reasonable amount of time to pull a manuscript of poetry together. It and the essays are already written. I just need to arrange and figure what filler to add, without drastically changing what the train of thought is in the book.
I want to call the book "Colouring Outside the Lines," and I already have the book jacket ophotos done. Those are of me in the burnt orange shirt with the crayolas. I'd like to get feedback. That's what makes us better writers.
