Tag, you’re it!
\nThe Next Big Thing!
\n–>
\nI was tagged by MG Roberts<\/a> in The Next Big Thing!
\nThe Next Big Thing! as you may know is a multi-branching dna strand of poets twisting and tagging each other in the cybersphere about their digital and actual words as books or chaps, perhaps bound projects. It was spawned by Carol Mirakove<\/a>.
\nThe Next Big Thing questions:
\nWhat is the working title of the book?
\nWhiskey, Water, and White Dwarves. It\u2019s based on a Kundiman<\/a> Retreat prompt that challenged me to include Jack Daniels whiskey and the phenomenon of White Dwarves in astronomy in the same poem. So much fun!
\nWhere did the idea come from for the book?
\nThis book is packed with my obsessions: magicians, taiko drumming, the lion house at the SF Zoo, an imaginary meeting between the Buddha and Donald Trump, manatees, hypnogogic dreaming. It makes sense, I swear.
\nWhat genre does your book fall under?
\nHybrid prose poem\/flash fiction\/experimental poetry\/tantric meditation. Is that a recognized genre?
\nWhat actors would you choose to play the part of your characters in a movie rendition?
\nSomeone a lot more flexible than I am. Someone who can do a backbend properly.
\nWhat is the one sentence synopsis of your book?
\nWe are dream and we are dreaming and it\u2019s a good thing!
\nHow long did it take you to write the first draft of the manuscript?
\nI\u2019m embarrassed to tell you how long I\u2019ve been writing these pieces. But I\u2019m glad they\u2019re together in a manuscript now!
\nWho or what inspired you to write this book?
\nI\u2019m always inspired by people and the world around me in its glorious chaos that somehow falls into place.
\nWhat else about your book might pique the reader\u2019s interest?
\nIt\u2019s the only book where you\u2019ll read about goldfish farming in poetry. I think that\u2019s true.
\nWill your book be self-published or represented by an agency?
\nI\u2019m looking for a publisher. Anyone interested in taking a look at the manuscript can email me at: candy@invisibleadventure.com
\nMy tagged writers for next Wednesday are:
\nSean Labrador Y Manzano<\/a>, Oliver de la Paz<\/a>, Samantha Giles<\/a>, Colleen Lookingbill<\/a>, Lisa Buchanan<\/a>, Paul Ocampo<\/a>, Margaret Rhee<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
