Just a note to say I was a Finalist again for the Keystone Chapbook Prize, this time for a chapbook called Keystone Effect which steals some poems from The Erotic Postulate and buddies them with some old but recently revised Pennsylvania-centric love poems.
It’s fun to see all these poems together again under the Keystone Effect title. They originally all lived together under the working title Scumble which became a hand-made one-of-a-kind book gift for my then boyfriend Brian. Over the years I reworked a handful of those poems into sections of The Erotic Postulate and have thought about them in the context of that manuscript for so long that I forgot they can also exist in the context of their original sequence.
Who knows, maybe I’ll continue to send Keystone Effect around while I continue to wait for The Erotic Postulate to find a home.
