Seven Days…is based on Homer’s The Odyssey, except Odysseus is Callie Grady, a clever teen girl who uses her wits and skill to survive in an America ripped apart by a new civil war.

In the midst of the turmoil, the blood, the death, Callie learns to trust herself, learns to survive, and most importantly learns to love. It’s a novel that combines elements of action-adventure, family drama, and the supernatural into a fast paced adventure. While geared towards the teen set, adults will find much in the novel to admire and enjoy, much like Gregory Galloway’s As Simple as Snow, John Green’s Looking for Alaska, or Gary Paulsen’s adventure novels such as Hatchet.

Summer Poetry Reading in Rehoboth

If anyone's interested in a mid-summer run to Rehoboth's outlet malls, consider Tuesday, July 27th, and stop by the Rehoboth Beach Librar y for the summer poetry series.

It's a quality series, and full of surprises. Garry Hanna has done a bang-up job organizing the summer series. Bring a few quarters to ward off the meter maid. Reading starts at 7:00 PM.

Hopefully you'll be hearing more from me over the next few months as projects near completion. Thanks for the support.

Vittorio Carli's work is punk rock #poetry

A Passion for Apathy: The Collected and Rejected Poems of Vittorio Carl i, a small press gem of punk rock poetry, carries poetic traditions in its teeth. Punk rock because of the in-your-face-anti-establishment irony and earnestness in Carli's presentation of his verse, traditional in the homage and muse tradition of poetry. He writes to and for those and that which enlarges his voice. Carli's work reads like a cross between cultural commentary/homage to persons as varied as Lawrence Welk to Woody Allen, to snapshots of socio-political unrest, which are flags of protest. My favorite is the “The Trouble with Librarians (for Andrea)” where Librarians are cast as the progenitors of closed information; they are “all closed books/with a couple of pages missing.” He's a poet, and I imagine him in some stacked room typing madly, or in transit, to and fro Chicago, scribbling on the back of brown paper bags. He works it. He's out there living poetry. Proof. My copy of t...
