Twitter Book: Poetry Edition

By Jason Boog 

30poets30days.jpgTwitter is a busy, crowded place. You can always write one more post pointing out some strange new thing on Twitter. To cope with the crowded Twitter-sphere, GalleyCat (@ronhogan and @jasonboog) will occasionally round-up literary news in an imaginary Twitter Book.

Rachel Sklar (who suggested this new feature) toured a Barnes & Noble, live-twittering her thoughts about the stacks.

Granta posted a poem by Wislawa Szymborska about meeting her teenage self.

Gregory K. launched 30 Poets/30 Days for National Poetry Month, featuring “a previously unpublished poem by a different children’s poet each day of April.”
