Do you listen to music when you write?

I can’t listen to music with words, as it interferes with my word process, but wordless music, classic or jazz, can sometimes enhance my writing. A Bach piece with choral work or John Coltrane’s horn can bring me there.

I guess combining art forms is usually a good thing. I’ve happily done readings of my poetry in art galleries. I think the art enhances the reading. How do you use the arts to enhance your writing?

My upcoming book, Touch My Head Softly is due out in early 2021;

Book Clubs

A friend of mine was recently asked to read at a book club meeting. The group had adopted her book to read that month, and since she was local, they asked her to come and read excerpts.

In Seattle, a group of poets formed a group called “A Poet at the Table,”where different area poets did readings at local book clubs.

Do you have any experience with book clubs?

My new book, Touch My Head Softly, is about my partner having Alzheimer’s Disease.

I guess this might interest an Alzheimer’s support group. Do you have any experience with Book Clubs?
