Mending slowly from recent Adventure in Neurosurgery. This is a nice get-well present: an article from the Ottawa Citizen on literary blogs with this lovely write-up on Vivid:
A more or less pure poetry blog - with photographs and political asides - can be found at Vivid: Pieces from a Writer's Notebook . Erin Noteboom writes from Kitchener Ontario. Her poetry has appeared in Grain, The Malahat Review, Prism International and a number of other literary journals. She often blogs a poem a day. She also posts short stories and excerpts from books in progress. This blog literally takes its reader inside the process of writerly creation. Make a cup of coffee and spend an hour at Vivid Pieces.
On-and-off reader Jane Tarzen wrote to me about this. Thanks, Jane! (And may I steal your name for something?) Author Jay Currie has the whole thing on his "long posts" blog. Thanks for the notice, Jay. If I ever get to meet you, you can have that cup of coffee on me.

Erin! So happy you are back, and to good news, too!
Neat!
