SUMMER READING August 27 2010
I just got this in the mail from Ela, our Northwest marketing person. It’s her new chapbook called Words were our first WEAPON.
When Ela isn’t holding down the CA fort, she’s spending most of her time writing, and more recently, teaching writing. She is a performance poet. But you may already know that, as I’ve featured her here before - when she first launched Find Time to Write, and when she released her first chapbook.
I’ve gotten through the first three pieces (one about Arizona SB1070, the other about the book title by way of Scrabble, and one about haunted pasts) and they are testament to her growth. The stories have become more vivid, the emotion more apparent. I wouldn’t want my words against hers in battle.
If you’re interested in doing some reading of your own, hit her up by emailing ela [dot] barton [at] live [dot] com. Tell her we sent you.
