Sorry, John, but you'll be busy with your own workshop on rhyme!

I just wanted to let everyone know that I have heard from Sam that he is looking into ways to make my book and the other Justice Prize winners available through vendors. Meanwhile, if you live in the US and would like to order a copy of The Whetstone Misses the Knife, you can send a check for $17.00 to me at English Dept., Southwest Minnesota State University, 1501 State St., Marshall, MN 56258, and I will send it to you. I am afraid that I don't know how to handle international orders or credit cards.

Susan, you could set up a Paypal account and receive money that way, either for no fee or a small fee of less than 3%. It's a handy thing to have for many purposes, and not hard to do. I believe they automatically convert currency on international transfers.

Thanks for the tip, Roger. I am not very Internet-savvy, but it sounds doable.

Emily Moore has agreed to join the faculty. Her first collection is coming out soon, and she is already a legendary teacher at Stuyvesant High School in TriBeCa (NY). Her workshop will be titled "Teaching Poetry to the Young." Some of you may remember Ms. Moore from "Auld Lang Syne," which first appeared in The New Yorker.

Jayne Osborn has agreed to chair a panel titled "Whitworth @ 70." Send a PM to Jayne if you have ideas.

Post Congratulations

Sam,

We haven't met, though I've read some of your work and know of you by reputation. I couldn't be more pleased to hear this news. Though I haven't been on Eratosphere for nearly 3 years, I just had to come back to congratulate you and thank you for taking on such an enormous and sensitive task. I'll look forward to the info you post on the Conference web site, and to meeting you at West Chester in 2016.

Ted Charnley

Thanks, Ted.

To all: Can we keep this thread, for the time being, free for posting news about the conference? As soon as the website is up, I'm move the posting over there. You can contact me at rsgwynn1@cs.com or by phone, and I am setting up a West Chester University Poetry Conference Program Director page on FB.

Sam
