The new Poetry Chaikhana anthology is now at a point that I can tell you a bit more about it. The manuscript is complete and I have all of the necessary poem permissions. It is now in the final stages of editing. I now am putting the final touches on the book cover design.<\/p>\n

It is taking its final form.<\/p>\n

The next step is to do a final proofreading. Since the anthology includes my commentary and poet biographies, as well as the poems themselves, there is a plenty to review (and plenty to enjoy as a reader!). Volunteer proofreaders were a great help with the previous anthology-I\u2019d love to ask once again for your help. Ideally, I would like half a dozen or more people, and I will send each person a small section of pages to look over. You don\u2019t need to be a professional proofreader, but it helps to have a keen eye, a solid sense of English grammar, and maybe just a drop of OCD.<\/p>\n

I will gladly send a copy of the new anthology as a thank you for your help when it is published. <\/p>\n

If you\u2019d like to help with the proofreading, please let me know by sending me a note at ivan@poetry-chaikhana.com<\/a>. Thank you so much!<\/p>\n

Once the proofreading is done, I still have some marketing and publishing details to take care of, and then the book goes to the printers-and we have our new book!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
