My Minnesota State Arts Board grant is supporting
three wonderful weeklong writing retreats at Crestwood Country Cabin, Tofte Arts Center, and the Oberholtzer Foundation’s Mallard Island. In addition to
writing, I will be making a C.D. of poems for distribution to libraries around
the state. More on that project in the fall!
