This past winter I launched a new website, a resource for readers, writers, teachers, community newspapers and lovers of poetry to explore and use. The website, "The News From Poems" houses newspaper columns featuring poems of season and place by Vermont writers.
Whereas before the column was only available to the Barton Chronicle where it originated in 2007, as of February 2012 the column is now issued from a monthly blog, accessible for free re- publication in all of Vermont's newspapers. Landscape paintings by Vermont artist, Elizabeth Nelson, accompany every page of the site, and there is a special section for educators, with suggestions for using poetry by Vermont writers in the classroom.
