A workshop for poets interested in making the most out of the summer Poetry Postcard Fest and the end of fest daysong, day-long writing ritual,
Writing poetry in a time of crisis, Ukraine, postcards.”War tries to destroy culture because culture sustains identity and memory. Literature is not only a victim of war, it is an instrument of survival, resistance, witnessing – and, sometimes, welcome refuge…”
Notes on the last Poetry Postcard Activation for 2026 at Pritchard Beach in Seattle.
I loved getting this poem Paul, thank you. I wrote a poem a couple years ago with a mile-wide reference to True Stories and no one picked up on it. This card was perfect for me in that synchronisitic way this project works.
Rhonda,
I read it again as it came up in the cue and felt that the poem was ok, but at least the card was stellar. I LOVE that card and was saving it for something special. Thanks for the kind comment and for being a postcarder. Linda C is considering doing a postcard chapbook. You might want to check in with her. I hope we can make this a book based on excellence and not include the cheesy poems for the sake of “inclusion.” Paul P.S. Did you know Yvonne B is committed to coordinating Cascadia III in Victoria, May 2015? She cd use someone like you on the local Advisory Board. Consider.
