Poetry Book Giveaway: Nat'l Po Month 2010



Poet Kelli Russell Agodon came up with a fantastic idea to give away free poetry books during National Poetry Month this year, and I am honored to be one of the many who have opted into this freebie extravaganza (her blog has a complete list of participants).

To win one of the two books below, all you have to do is post a comment to this post saying "count me in" (or something along those lines), and I will add you to a random drawing of two names, each of whom will receive one of the following books:

Allison Joseph's My Father's Kites, just out from Steel Toe BooksOR my book, Blue Positive, also pubbed by Steel Toe Books (2006).


Yesiree, free poetry is available on this site; all you have to do is post a howdy comment, and you are in the running!

Hiya! - I just befriended you on Facebook. I have your book already (I was actually reading on the Steel Toe Books board when we picked it!), but if I won it for free I'd gladly pass it along to a kindred spirit. I just found your blog, and I wanted to say Hi anyway. Might as well say Hi AND put my name in. So, Hi!
