To sign up:  https://form.jotform.com/berattle/secondtuesday \n\nJennifer K. Sweeney  \nJennifer K. Sweeney is the author of four books of poetry\, most recently Foxlogic\, Fireweed\, winner of the Backwaters Prize from Backwaters Press/University of Nebraska. Her other collections are Little Spells (New Issues Press\, 2015)\, How to Live on Bread and Music (Perugia Press)\, and Salt Memory (Main Street Rag). She is the recipient of many awards\, including the James Laughlin Award from the Academy of American Poets\, the Perugia Press Prize\, and a Pushcart Prize.  She teaches poetry workshops at the University of Redlands in California\, and is known for a decade-long practice of private instruction and manuscript critique. \nFoxlogic\, Fireweed can be purchased from the University of Nebraska Press\, linked from Jennifer’s website: https://www.jenniferksweeney.com/ \nAbout FOXLOGIC\, FIREWEED \n“Foxlogic\, Fireweed is a torn map of a state where all words are proximate to mystery. Venturing into terra incognita\, into territory that might be anima mundi\, maybe\, reader\, you think you know the lineaments\, but they are altered. Altared. Yes\, to dream space\, but wilder\, wider—this metal into bird\, stone into air\, mother into vulpine. Sweeney is breathing strangeness into a small body of words\, and the expanses open exponentially.”—Marsha de la O \n​“The logic of Foxlogic\, Fireweed is human and humane; it’s the logic of a penetrative tenderness and an embodiment always on the verge of dispersing into fox\, or deer\, or rain. . . . These are not bandwagon poems. They don’t mug for the camera. Rather\, they enact a love ‘sourced in loneliness’ where ‘with our little keys of witness’ we find each other—the very definition of the lyric poem.”—Diane Seuss \n\nIndigo Moor \nIndigo Moor is the Poet Laureate Emeritus of Sacramento. His fourth book of poetry\, Everybody’s Jonesin’ for Something\, took second place in the University of Nebraska Press’ Backwater Prize. His second book\, Through the Stonecutter’s Window\, won Northwestern University Press’s Cave Canem prize. His first and third books\, Tap-Root and In the Room of Thirsts & Hungers\, were both part of Main Street Rag’s Editor’s Select Poetry Series. Indigo is an adjunct professor at Dominican University and visiting faculty for Dominican’s MFA program\, teaching poetry and short fiction. \nIndigo is a former faculty member at the Stonecoast MFA Program\, where he graduated in 2012 with an MFA in poetry\, fiction\, and scriptwriting. He’s a playwright as well: his full-length stageplay\, Live! at the Excelsior\, was a finalist for the Images Theatre Playwright Award\, and the subsequent screenplay has been optioned for a full-length film. \nIndigo is a Cave Canem fellow\, former resident artist at 916 ink\, and a graduate member of the Artist’s Residency Institute for Teaching Artists. \nA 10-year veteran of the US Navy and a twice-decorated Gulf War Veteran\, Indigo divides his time between writing\, teaching\, and Integrated Circuit Layout Designer for computer companies. \nAbout EVERYBODY’S JONESIN’ FOR SOMETHING \n“Narratives don’t always belong to history’s victors\,’’ writes Indigo Moor. If this line gives you pause\, I strongly suggest you carry Moor’s brilliant book\, Everybody’s Jonesin’ for Something\, home with you. In this dazzling book\, you will read just how closely this poet has been paying attention\, to us\, to his histories\, foreign and domestic\, to our mighty (and sometimes mighty confusing) nation. Jonesin’ is a verse flashlight to all the corners you thought no one was supposed to pay attention to\, line by beautifully crafted line\, truth by earned truth. You’ll reach the last line of the last poem\, and trust me\, that’s when the hunger for more will begin.”—Cornelius Eady\, author of The War Against the Obvious \n“Indigo Moor’s new collection shuttles between searing rebuke and hopeful anguish with accents of hard-edged humor. What I love most is the clarity of thought—the no-holds-barred\, no-punches-pulled sharpness of the language that carries the reader through each poem\, jonesin’ for the next. Everybody’s Jonesin’ for Something invites you out of your complacency and fuels a restlessness that reminds you that you’re alive\, that this is no time for sleeping.”—Tim Seibles\, author of One Turn around the Sun
