About the author
Sarah J. Sloat
11 books371 followersI love poetry, literature and non-fiction.
Occasionally I go on a diet of short stories. I like the literary, the mainstream, the experimental and the un-categorical. I write poetry. I like the mysterious. I like history, too.
Long ago in another lifetime, I studied Chinese. I'm from NJ but have lived more than half my life outside the US.
As I get older I'm only interested in reading books that are wonderful and otherwise remarkable.
In poetry and otherwhere, the lower-case i/I doesn't bother me, nor does a lack of punctuation, etc.
Regarding my shelves, I won't be listing all the instruction manuals, young adult and children's books I've read unless there's something really important I want to say about them. Which I don't, mostly.
If you want to be-friend me, that's nice, but please do it for a reason other than upping your numbers or trying to sell me your book over & over! That's ridiculous. I wouldn't do that to you, though you should read my books.

A very nice collection of short poems about the simple things in life. What really impressed me were the quick turn of phrases that, upon first read may seem simple, but really stand out once read again.
I'd like to thank the author for sending me a copy to enjoy.

Wonderful poems, especially "Flip-Book Ghazal", "Liaoning Journal", and the four poems based on the qualities of typefaces.

From Escape into Life: "Inksuite is a wonderfully smart and funny chapbook of poems focused on font and other particulars related to printing and ink."
