This January, I attended the Palm Beach Poetry Festival, where I worked with Malena Morling, got to meet one of my favorite poets, Sharon Olds, made a good friend in fellow classmate Sarah McCann, and fell in love with a poet new to me, Claudia Emerson. Oh, and I was in Palm Beach in January--this, for a Minnesotan, was heavenly. Feel free to browse more photos from the week here.
