Alicia Wright : part five

What are you working on?

Namely, the work now is my dissertation. For that I’m working on resuscitating my writing spirit, which means attending to feeling-projects connected to writing, such as letting a manuscript go, finding my footing for new poems, and reviving my love for poetry that might not show me something new, but remind me of things that are important. Adjacent to all that, I’m reviewing several recent poetry collections, editing Denver Quarterly, F I V E S: A Companion to Denver Quarterly, and assembling pieces for my own online journal, Annulet: A Journal of Poetics, coming to the world this spring. In many ways, I think, I’m working on waking up.
