alee_grrlIt is my pleasure to introduce this week's poetry host: Luisa A. Igloria.
Luisa A. Igloria is a poet and the author of ten books, including Juan Luna's Revolver and Trill and Mordent. In addition she also maintains a blog about poetry, where poetry news is coupled with fun behind-the-scenes meta on writing poetry and personal anecdotes. In one post Luisa examines her goal of writing at least one poem a day, and how she achieved this goal. I particularly enjoyed her exploration of the word discipline:
After reading through some of her greatest hits from the last years poem-a-day effort, I must say that I am eager to see which poems Luisa shares with us. Please join me in welcoming Luisa to our community.
