“Not that a poem can "hurt" someone the same way a physical blow can or even a mean remark can...I just felt unsure that my tone would be taken the right way and/or unsure of my own writing, that I couldn't maintain the tone I wanted.” WayWritingMeanWould BeWantedFeltHurtMy OwnTakenBlowToneRight WayRemarksUnsureHurts Someone Author:Denise Duhamel
“I have no idea, actually, where I fit in, in terms of poetry camps. At AWP conferences, I have been on panels about humor, collaboration, visual poetry, confessional poetry, gender, and the body, as well as tributes to Edward Field and Albert Goldbarth. I felt at home on all of them - most poets straddle more than one school.” WellsHas BeensIdeasHomeBodySchoolFeltTermFieldsPoetFitGenderNo IdeaVisualsCollaborationCampsConferencesTribute Author:Denise Duhamel
