Editing poetry

I have been busy trying to edit the poems from the 1972 book. Adding prose to go with the poems and telling myself  I'm looking at my alter-ego. I was intent on going beyond DH Lawrence but it's more like feminist poetry of the day???
Will keep at it. Canada needs a poet to celebrate.

New Book

Yesterday I went out to UBC to get a copy of a book of poetry I wrote in the late '60's and that was published in 1972. It was like reading my own history and the history of a time long gone. Very interesting.
Now I will write out the original followed by the edited version with prose additions and the new, updatede, version and I'll send the whole thing to a Canadian publisher. First though I will be looking for a Canadian Agent to handle my work. Will submit a request to the Canada Council as well.

The New Year

A screenplay, three new novels, a continuing story. I greet the new year as an author and writer and a man hungry for new work, new tensions, new understandings but mostly a new sense of crossing the threshold to experience life with anticetipation.
I greet the new year as a non-smoker (and having written it I am therefore committed to it.) learning to taste all over  again and looking forward to new travel, reading, conversation and fantasies.
Rescuing a book of poetry I wrote in the late '60's and re-writing some of it, adding prose to some of it, and generally re-visiting the ghosts.

                                 original work -- edits with prose -- new work


We'll see.
The screenplay is only 400 + pages, too short??
