With both IRA and ALA coming up, go to media producer's booths (Listening Library, Full Cast Audio, major publishers who are adding CD's to novels, etc.) and voice your concern about POETRY being HEARD via CD's.
If we get ONE publisher to listen...ONE who produce a fine recording, we'll make a beginning.
Wouldn't it be wonderful to have a CD of contemporary poets such as Kristine O'Connell George, J. Patrick Lewis, Rebecca Kai Dotlich, et. al. reading work form their new books? I HAVE heard and been involved with poet-readings and they have been spectacular events.
Let's go!
