My new book is out

Blog Posted:3/28/2020 7:23:00 AM

Dear Soupers,

I hope you are all safe and well in this crazy upsetting time. And I hope you're writing. I have not been writing, because I cannot focus with all that is going on. My new book is out, and since some of you had an interest in my previous work, I hope it's ok to share it.

We are isolating at home, so I can't ship copies, but you can order through amazon and B&N. The theme of the book is growth and transition, and I hope it can bring a little bit of joy and hope. I have shared a few of the poems on Soup, and will put up a few more over the next days.

Be safe and stay well and find comfort and inspiration in poetry.

Agnes

Thanks for your kind words, John. It won't be great; all my reading events are canceled, this is a really bad time to release a book. But it is what it is. Thanks for the congrats.

" I have not been writing, because I cannot focus with all that is going on" This line of yours is particularly striking because it's exactly what's happening to me as well. It's really a struggle for some to stay inspired because of all the distracting anxiety and craziness of late! But heartiest congratulations on your publication! I'm thrilled for you! Keep staying well and safe out there, Agnes:-) *Hugs*

Thank you, Edward. I have talked to many people and all are struggling with focus. I hope we will find a way to adapt to the new (ab)normal and settle into a rhythm. Thank you for your kind words. Be well.

what wonderful news Agnes, I wish you every success with your new publication; Life is difficult for so many of us, our Island is in lockdown but we still manage a daily walk in the countryside which inspires me. take care my friend:-) hugs Jan xx

It's a rotten time to release a new book, because of course all events are canceled. And then one asks oneself whether anything written before the pandemic is even relevant anymore...

Thank you, Jan. I am glad you get to walk outside; it must be beautiful now in the spring. Schools are closed and we are working form home teaching our classes online. We are still allowed out, as our area hasn't been hit yet, but we all know it is only a matter of time. Be safe and well, and do not lose your sense of humor.
