I’m going to be trying something new, beginning in a few weeks, to hopefully get more people interested in the blog, and maybe even in poetry.
Everybody likes a contest, right?
Also, there are some interesting poetry-related things brewing in York. More on those in a future post as well.
Because anticipation is a most excellent emotion. 
Here, I'll discuss and review contemporary books of poetry, with a focus on regional writers, publications, and organizations. I'll promote area writers by offering prompts and contests, because I want to foster a spirit of community centered around poets and readers of poetry. This is a place to demystify the art of poetry, to appreciate its economy of language, its precision of image and sound.
Please share suggestions for blog content by emailing me at sfleegal@ydr.com. I'd love to hear from you! Let's versify PA and support those who are doing the same.
