Obviously, you/we/everyone needs to eat. <BR/><BR/>If you (meaning anyone reading this and not just January) are able to subscribe to magazines again, I highly encourage you to do so. I also encourage you to ask your local library to order poetry books you like -- helps support poetry presses -- and ask your university library to subscribe to literary journals. Preferably, you'll ask them to sub to journals that publish a lot of poetry!32poems.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17465070874222007182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14397387.post-86498861874225066242009-03-10T13:39:00.000-04:002009-03-10T13:39:00.000-04:00I'm a member of the Nat'l Association of Science W...I'm a member of the Nat'l Association of Science Writers (not exactly literary, but along the same lines). They offer good networking and job links. I've been a member of the Nat'l Writers' Union on and off. I really love their mission, and I think their contract help is AMAZING. They also hold some neat events. I would love to join AWP at some point, when the budget allows.Writer Bughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18332064105213167179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14397387.post-44569233127939293712009-03-10T12:13:00.000-04:002009-03-10T12:13:00.000-04:00I forgot AWP, also a member.I was once a member of...I forgot AWP, also a member.<BR/><BR/>I was once a member of PSA & Acad. of American Poets, but all their events are on the East coast, I kind of felt like the kid who lived in the wrong part of town.Kelli Russell Agodon - Book of Kellshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01798460634708905783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14397387.post-49863102274973452362009-03-10T09:01:00.000-04:002009-03-10T09:01:00.000-04:00I am taking a poll on your second question over at...I am taking a poll on your second question over at The Muse: http://avoidmuse.blogspot.comC.
