National Poetry Month (#nationalpoetrymonth) is drawing to an end with barely an acknowledgement. It's understandable. And it is what it is. Though (pre-pandemic) I had hoped to use this month to boost visibility for tumbling: poetic thoughts from an anxious mind, it simply isn't the right time to do much self-promoting. I am grateful for the one lovely review it did get, this month. And, I'll try again next April. That's the wonderful thing about books, they do not expire.

Our local school district announced (as expected) that the school year will be finished via e-learning. As we are all adjusting to life during this global pandemic, I am continuing to give myself plenty of grace and permission not to be productive in the same ways I used to be.

The only writing news I have this week is that The Good Men Project syndicated another one of my essays with zero effort on my part as they are adding the pieces accepted into their Medium publications onto their main site.

The Good Men Project syndicated one of my essays this week. It was a pleasant surprise since I haven't been putting any time or effort into syndication queries for a few weeks now.

I do have a couple of outstanding queries from before the pandemic but I have a feeling the editors may be feeling much the same as I am about work and I don't blame them one bit for putting projects on the back burner for now.

We are in our 4th week of sheltering-in-place. And I am continuing to give myself a lot of grace.
