I am extremely grateful to Shelf Life for stocking my “flawed” Poetic Memoir Chapbook. This book was the result of a challenge during which I wrote 15 poems in 10 days. My name may be misspelled on the cover, but I poured my heart and soul into each and every poem. Thank you so very much, Danielle Sawat!

It couldn't have come at a better time... have you also been feeling like you need more poetry in your life? If so, you're not alone- I've had several conversations recently about poetry, and not including enough in personal reading.
Poetic Memoir Chapbook Challenge is available now in the store, and makes a great poetic carry-around for the times when we want a break from large story volumes.
