I’m one of the runnersup for the Paumanok Poetry Award, which is more than just a consolation prize: I’ll be giving a reading next year down on Long Island, at SUNY Farmingdale, which will be cool because I don’t get down that way very often & the award pays enough that I’ll be able to stay in NYC for a couple of days & go to museums & bookstores.
congratulations. it’s another opportunity to spread your wings and your smile. edward mycue
That’s great news. I loved the poem you published in The Sun too. Sabbatical arrives just as you hit a new stride marked by wide vision and that urgency that comes with good storytelling. You seem to be enjoying the work too.
Congratulations! I hope you enjoy your reading at SUNY Farmingdale. I graduated in 1966 when it was still a 2-year school. It was a great adventure.
Congratulations, Joe. Very cool.
