Mel Sherrer : part two

How does your work first enter the world? Do you have a social group or writers group that you work ideas and poems with?

My poems make it first into the world by way of readings (my favorite method), and publications. I used to have a cohort around the time I was completing my MFA, but the best and most focused work I have done on my writing has been in the years after that, working from home, in seclusion. I'm sure my friends in writing would extend feedback if I ask them for critique, but I habitually keep my writing, revision, and submission process private until a project is published.
