Yes, we missed ‘October discussion’ post. You may have noticed.

Now that I’m posting weekly instead of every five days, I’ve decided to post poetry discussion every other month, and at that point include two or more chapters of A Poet’s Craft by Annie Finch. (Otherwise one quarter of our posts are about poetry, which I don’t think is representative of needs and wants.)

For all those new Unschool readers, we’ve been discussing a chapter of this book each month through 2023. This tome, by Annie Finch, is the most thorough exploration of poetry, a book to read and re-read, a book to wrestle.

As always, I’m trying to make the”poetry” piece accessible and of interest to all. If you’ve been reading with The Unschool for awhile now, you know I’m a fan of hybrid-genre as a path to deepening all of our work.
