Quotes by Craig Morgan Teicher (?)

“Though it seems, at first, like an art of speaking, poetry is an art of listening.”
― Craig Morgan Teicher, We Begin in Gladness: How Poets Progress

0 likes

“Most poets, in addition to being word fetishists, finally dedicate themselves to poetry -- or find themselves helplessly in its thrall -- in order to answer for something deeper and perhaps darker than their passion for words.”
― Craig Morgan Teicher, We Begin in Gladness: How Poets Progress

0 likes

“Poets begin, ideally, in gladness, but often they begin in darker states -- poetry tends to arise as a way forward for those who have something to say that is painful and unutterable by other, more practical, more direct means.”
― Craig Morgan Teicher, We Begin in Gladness: How Poets Progress

I want to apologize for the all the recommendations from me today. I wanted to share the Stoker Award news, and I only pressed the send button once--I'm not sure what happened to create so many messages. Some weird glitch.

Argh...this is terrible...

Again, I'm very sorry.

Here’s wishing you a nifty New Year filled with noiseless noses, neato nicknames, noble Nebraskans, gnarly narcoleptic nebulas, and novel novels about nut-eating narwhals and novercaphobic gnats.

-Jeremy :)

P.S.—I’m currently offering autographed/personally-inscribed copies of my novel, Vacation, with free shipping for those in the US. If there’s anything you could do to help me spread the word about this, I’d really appreciate it. Feel free to click here for details:

Hi Craig!

Here’s wishing you a yippee-filled Yuletime overflowing with yard-long yams, yapping yoyo-yanking yetis, yak-milk yeast-cakes, and yellow yarn-yielding year-end yard-gnomes.

-Jeremy :)

Thanks for the friendship, Craig!

If you don't mind sharing--I'm curious, what's your favorite novel of all time (if you have one)?

Also, I was wondering if you'd do me the honor of reading about my debut novel, Vacation. Your support would mean a lot to me. If you'd like to do me this honor, feel free to click here:

Here’s wishing you a fantastic day filled with fabulous fates, fanciful festivities, and frolicking phantom footstools.

-Jeremy :)
