Poetry Madness for National Poetry Month

To celebrate National Poetry Month, Powell's Books is running Poetry Madness, pitting poet against poet for popularity. This year it's all female poets. (Emily Dickinson won last year, so for fun check last year's brackets.)

Be sure to vote in all four brackets. First round voting ends April 7th, so don't be late!

Powell's for Poetry

Here's a great way to celebrate National Poetry Month. Powell's Books is offering 15% off all poetry titles for the month of April. So now's the time to buy those books you've been coveting.

Hat tip to Shara Lessley, at whose blog I discovered this fact when I was following up on bloggers involved in The Big Poetry Giveaway. My drawing is open all month for that event, as are many other bloggers'; you can find out who and where here. You might even learn about something incidental, like I learned about the sale at Powell's.
