Elizabeth Gauffreau Reads a Poem from Rooted and Winged

I did post about the beautiful review of Rooted and Winged by Elizabeth Gauffreau in the new issue of Anti-Heroin Chic. Now Liz has recorded a poem from the book–and it’s such a treat! She published it on her post with her link of the review.

Publication First: #BookReview: Rooted and Winged by Luanne Castle

A big thank you to Liz for both the review and this charming reading.

Anti-Heroin Chic Publishes Review of Rooted and Winged by Elizabeth Gauffreau

So excited to see such a beautiful review of Rooted and Winged by Elizabeth Gauffreau in the new issue of Anti-Heroin Chic. A big thank you also to editor James Diaz.

See below image for update on Perry.

Perry’s ultrasound showed that he definitely has either IBD or lymphoma. Our decision was narrowed down to starting steroids or having investigative surgery. A complication is that he has recently developed a heart murmur so nothing can be done (except food change nightmare) until after his echocardiogram which is after Christmas! If you are a praying person, please put us on your list. Or send healing vibes or demands to the universe that this is IBD and that the steroids will make him well!

2 Poems Up at Anti-Heroin Chic

A big thank you to Editor James Diaz of the really fun lit mag Anti-Heroin Chic who has published my poems “Into Pulp” and “Scrap” in their latest issue. The first poem is a response to someone else’s vintage photograph. I don’t have permission to post the photo, but here is a link: Wrecked archive image The first poem begins this way:

Into Pulp Lakewater pushes at my ankles toes slicing an evanescent path I’m at an age where I think I’m at the age and I don’t imagine eyerolls where I sense time abrading my surface like this constantly moving water stones and minnows distort into segments molecules into a variety of atomic individuals two purple, no, one hairbrush, a plastic ball a swaying branch, leaves decaying the insides of my grandmothers’ fridges bubble and pop into shards of memory

The second poem, “Scrap,” relates to my memoir of the same name.
