Submit to Open Mic at Hazel & Wren

Hazel and Wren's monthly open mic is accepting submissions on Monday and Tuesday, in advance of the Wednesday Open Mic.

Last month, I submitted a draft of one of my National Poetry Month poems, and got some good advice on where to tighten up the piece. One of the many things I struggle with is deciding where to cut. I tend to write in large flourishes, then par down to the essentials, re-ordering and re-arranging as I go.

If you're the writerly sort, I encourage you to check it out.
