Yep, its tourqoise

Three writers who blog and their ideas. Of course youtube provides a great way to do PR word and ad work for yourself. Blog Talk Radio and Twitter ditto. Thus if you write you might want to do the same. Copy those of all backgrounds who are reaching theworld through multi media. Personally, I can’t afford to place a big ad in the NY Times. And so far I have not mastered creating a good youtube video either.

Yet the blogger can use many venues that only require time to promote themselves. Ditto: writers. I love to listen to other writers talk and learn how they perceive the writing process, their work, and publishing. So go back and watch. Any topic becmes full of unidentified tips. You may stumbe upon several that I missed.

Sylvia Plath Trailblazer Messages to us again

Sunday, June 28th, 2009

Horror and skill, being frozen and then unfrozen, her life compiled many layers of desperation and hope. Her from her heart she carved out verse and pursued publishing, while in her shadow a deeper despair could haunt daydreams. Challenges surrounded her and she set flight to rise above debilitation to give us a glimpse of an inner world,reality.

Listen to her read, and others read her while to read these words. Her message strong invites you to climb your mountain and to see, to speak, and to real your experience as long as you can.

Perhaps you will become as MAy Sarton did, an old woman still creating verse. Perhaps your life can bring inspiration to others today and into future generations. These are lessons we can absorb. People truely following their paths. What path is yours to write?

Read and study, compare how these poets add words into a rcih stew of living. Footsteps covered with earth. Might these illustrations challenge you to go deeper into your own expression? Listen to these words, for poetry creates a song that mingles with wind and crackling branches.

Pause and absorb the magic. Write and breathe into your word the vitality of life, living, and wonder.

Leave Notes of Appreciation: for husbands only by Dan Robey

Saturday, June 27th, 2009

journeys call us to return; walking always  photo by Mary MacIntyre

journeys call us to return; walking always photo by Mary MacIntyre



How many people are here who are not husbands? Great the headline worked! Here’s another email as part of a class that Dan RObey generoulsy offered. I enjoyed the content, and read on for all the details. Before that consider the format, and how effectively it helps you begin to trust and appreciate Dan.

Next ask yourself the question could you also create a series of emails to help bild your list and trust among that list? What do you love to write about? What articles have you composed? Could you take the answers from these questions and create an e-course of 10 or more emails? Blogs?

If you do this can these ideas be woven with other products for sale? Or could you create another series of articles that may be sold? A course as described above might act like a hub on a bike’s wheel. Make a list of five spokes, in reality, links that you could connect to to produce income. Set these up and you have a business that can be used over and over to build a list and earn income. Now read on to hear what Dan has to say. Thank you Dan.
Dear Mary,

Welcome to the third in a series of
Positive Habits lessons.

Today’s positive habit:
‘Positive habit for husbands, make your wives happier than
if you had just showered them with roses!’

************************************************************

Today’s quote:

‘Some people wait all there lives for the outside to change
their inside. But it never seems to happen, because change
comes from within us first, then the outside
becomes different.’ - Elliott Goldwag Ph. D.

************************************************************

Today’s positive habit:

Leave notes of love and appreciation.

If there is one thing that we all crave, it is sincere and
honest appreciation. If you really want to make your loved
one happy, make it a habit to leave her notes of appreciation
and love on a regular basis. Buy some Post-it notes and leave
them where she is most likely to see them: in her car, on the
bathroom window, in her jewelry box.

Tell her how much you love her, give her kind words of encouragement
and appreciation. Tell her what a great job she is doing with
the kids, remind her how much you appreciate the hard work
she does around the house. Try this and see the warm, happy
smile on her face when she finds the first note.

**

“From now on, powerful desire, rock-solid determination and undying
persistence will help you achieve whatever you desire… Everything
you do, you’ll do to win”

Does that sound good to you? Unstoppable Motivation Now! a new CD
audio program will help you achieve whatever you desire and be a
winner in life!

http://tinyurl.com/y42lvd

As you listen to Unstoppable Motivation Now!, just like sands
though an hour glass,positive re-patterning statements will be
filling you up and filling you up with the most determined-to-succeed
attitudes you could possibly imagine.

You will be infused with new, positive, compelling thoughts and
beliefs like these:

* It is your destiny to accomplish many great things
* You can move yourself to take productive action anytime and
anyplace
* When you say you’re going to do something, you do it
* No matter what your goal is, you always find a way to achieve it
* You always find the time to work on your most important goals
* You have an unquenchable thirst for knowledge
* When you set your sights on a goal it’s as good as done
* You will learn whatever you must in order to reach your goals
* You always persist until you succeed
* You love getting important things done
* Once you set a goal, you will move Heaven and Earth to reach it

Logan Phillips Poet: Writing Workshop plus video

Friday, June 26th, 2009
fish and turtle rock?

fish and turtle rock?

Stolen words is a phrase he uses in his video, and I have borrowed words to introduce you to a powerful poet. Read and watch. Mary

Writing Workshop with Logan Phillips
Logan Phillips, bilingual slam poet, is in town to perform with Verbobala (see NHCC listing below). These days Logan finds himself on both sides of the border - writing, performing, teaching and changing lives! He will be doing a two-hour workshop at Chroma Downtown. This is an amazing opportunity - so make your reservations now. First 10 students under 21 are FREE. Fee $10 or two cans of food. Chroma has opened up the walls in their performance space and can now fit in almost twice as many bodies.
Workshop Tuesday, June 30, 6:30-8:30pm
Chroma Art Center
First and Roma NW, Downtown
(505) 554-3805

Ok, this is it! After a couple years of poetry, a few months of preparations and a few weeks of pulling things together, my new book Arroyo Ink is now for sale online!

I’m excited about this one, I think this is the best work I’ve put into print so far. It’s the fifth in the series of chapbooks that I have released since 2002, and like the rest of them, this is a hand-crafted, independently-produced piece of work. It also has strange illustrations in it drawn by myself and Adam Cooper-Terán. The illustrations are all based on remixed letterforms and will keep your eyes oh-so entertained.

I’m selling the books for $10, plus a couple bux for shipping. All purchases are handled by PayPal, which is a secure online payment company owned by eBay. 100% secure, not to worry. I know times are lean for everybody, but if you are able to plop down some virtual dollars, I’d love to put a book in the mail to you. I appreciate it.

The US book release performance was a couple weeks back in Bisbee, AZ, and it was more than I could have hoped for. Video art showcase, introduction by Adam Cooper-Terán, an hour-long performance of new poems and a reception featuring a showing of the fine art prints from the book. For all those who couldn’t be there, here’s the goods! Hopefully I’ll be touring a lot in the coming year, but until then:

Now available:

•Arroyo Ink book
•Illustrated postcards
•Fine art prints (limited editions!)

Raw Food Chef Juliano Brotman w/ Erika Lenkart

I wanted to see what would come up with a raw food chef cookbook. There is actually a lot of availabe information. I copied part of a review (credits are included) and links for your ease.

RAW The Uncook Book
New Vegetarian Food for Life
By Juliano Brotman with Erika Lenkert
Regan Books,
An Imprint of HarperCollins Publishers, 1999
$32.00

From cover to cover RAW, The Uncook Book is a graphic grabber with stunning color photography, beautiful layouts, and top-notch professional food styling. Every page whets the salivary glands with tempting photos of the unique raw, vegan, dishes Juliano has created. But don’t take our word for it, pick up the book and start flipping pages just as we did.

You, too, will be instantly awakened by the beauty and vibrant colors each page presents. By chance we opened the book to page 145 and were dazzled by Purple Blueberry and Raspberry Burritos, a purple cabbage leaf that contains a filling of creamed nuts, marinated portobello, salsa, and curried guacamole with a colorful garnish of blueberries and raspberries, and chopped mango. Awesome! RAW, The Uncook Book presents raw foods in a brilliant new dimension. Raw food cookbooks of the past contained simple salads, blender soups, a few fruit beverages, and instructions on how to sprout. Juliano’s book, on the other hand, offers complex taste sensations that titillate the taste buds with every recipe. Each dish is a masterpiece of colors, flavors, and textures, while the garnishing is a literal celebration of design mastery.

How did Juliano, who is not even 30 years old, develop his unique brand of exceptional raw food cuisine? He didn’t even start his life as a vegetarian. He grew up in Las Vegas, worked in his father’s Italian restaurant, and paid little attention to food in general. As a 15 year old, he moved to Palm Springs where his hikes into the hills quickly bonded him with nature. He found trickling streams, a waterfall, majestic mountains, birds, fish and frogs, and his instant response was to become a vegetarian.

By the age of 19, he was totally vegan and into organic foods which he found far tastier. His path naturally led him to raw fruits and vegetables and to seek education about the nutritional benefits of sprouting seeds, grains and legumes. An innovative person, Juliano at 22 was creating raw food dishes with flair and enjoying the zest and energy he derived from them. “I was enjoying the most exquisite, unique, decadent food on the planet and my mentor was not some fancy cooking school, but the earth itself,” he says.

At 24 he became the owner of RAW, a raw foods restaurant near Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. Success came quickly with recognition from USA Today, People magazine, theNew York Times, Vegetarian Times and the San Francisco Chronicle. His soups and salads are visual and flavor treats that go way beyond any soups and salads one has ever encountered before. The section on breads is an eye opener. With whole, sprouted grains, unexpected seasoning combinations, nuts, fruits and vegetables, he creates breads with exceptional flavor and textures that depart from the familiar.

Juliano’s recipes for sandwiches carry familiar names, but that’s where familiarity ends. He has a BLT (bacon, lettuce, and tomato) and a Tuna Sandwich that have none of those ingredients, yet the flavors have a familiar quality. His Marinated Caviar in the section “Snacks, Appetizers & Side Dishes” is anything but familiar, yet beckons one to taste this unlikely combination of berries of one’s choice that are marinated in apple cider vinegar, Umeboshi plum paste, Nama Shoyu and lemon and oranges juices.

in the distance sky still sings photo by Mary MacIntyre

Missed getting this online early enough. However it reminded me of the deep and perplexing work that Ms. Proulx has accomplished. So let’s get some extra information below. I checked out some biographical information and found there are still more books by Aniie Proulx for me to read! Thus I am posting a second blog on her works. I was startled not to find more yourube videos about her.

Some how haven’t read her books yet? The psychological character development and excellent regional settings creates a profound narrative.

Annie Proulx at UNM Summer Sunset Series
Annie Proulx will present Coming Out of the Mountains, a lecture about life and writing. Prouix’s “The Shipping News” won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, the National Book Award for Fiction, and the Irish Times International Fiction Price.

Sixty Water Weaving Women at La Orilla Canal
This ritual performance place the afternoon of the Summer Solstice is intended to express and encourage gratitude and awareness of the water source that flows through the city - a constant presence to a life force that is rarely noticed. The performance will take place on the west side of the canal. Inspired by the tradition of women as water bearers, each woman carried her own pitcher in the ritual as a symbol of her personal commitment to guard and conserve this precious resource. The combined waters carried by these 60 women represent the collective impact of their individual commitment.

Bonjour! Etude & write! photo by Mary MacIntyre

First a short review.
A New Herbal Classic, July 30, 2001
By A Customer

Tolley and Mead have done it again. With stunningly beautiful photos and to-the-point text, the wonderful world of herbs is explored in a new way. Many people don’t fully appreciate the value of herbal flowers, but Tolley and Mead show that they can indeed stand on their own. They explore picking, conditioning, drying, growing, and arranging, as well as some unique craft ideas. For anyone into herbs, this is a must read. Another herbal masterpiece

Second a link: http://www.amazon.com/Herbal-Bouquets-Emelie-Tolley/product-reviews/0609604384/ref=dp_top_cm_cr_acr_txt?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=1
Click the book cover…

2 interviews with Emelie Tolley and her lavendar series.

Today I discoered the beautiful work and recipes that Emelie Tolley and Chris Mead have produced. Together they have woven stories, beautiful photographs, and information about herbs into a series of books.

You can read a little from herbal bouquets by using the link provided earlier. The used versions of that book are much less expensive than the hardback Herbs Gardens, Decorations, and Recipes. Both create adventures that will invite creativity and can open doors of pleasure and wonder.

Herbal bouquets provides an exciting foundaton for you to experiment with dashing and free arrangements. Having a special event? Just go outside and find the best of materials to create lovely and unique arrangement. Bon Adventure. Visit http://coachingcooking.com

Susan Boyle: winner of our hearts

Saturday, May 30th, 2009
Write,write,write, and leave me a comment,please.

Write,write,write, and leave me a comment,please.

I haven’t kept up with all the media on Susan Boyle. I did have to see the outcome of the contest. I also love the lyrics of Memory, but could not get the video here.

I am writing tonight about her because she opens the door to believing our dreams are worthy of a valiant pursuit. Some will say she did not win, and so it may seem. Let’s look at the transformation. We can sit at home. WE can wish. WE can get up and go about the steps. We can confront our fears and limitations. We can stride forward.

If we fall short so what? Look at how far she has come! If we went just a short way, our lives can really change, and often for the better. Often our days are tough and perhaps darken our spirits. Look, one does not HAVE to give in. One does not have to give up.
If we do not meet that dream, we have lifted our hearts and minds.

I applaud Susan Boyle for her courage, brillance, and wonderful voice. We all carry our version of our voice to be expressed in ur personal way. Walk with confidence, joy, and purpose and let your crativity blossom. Make you feel like writing doesn’t it? Well do it! Send me examples and I will share them.

Do enjoy and congratulations on your dreams!

Lydia Gil at National Latino Conference Albuquerque NM

Thursday, May 21st, 2009

Lydia Gil
News writing workshop
This workshop will address the basics of cultural news reporting and book reviewing for
print and digital media. We will discuss how to find stories, identify markets, conduct
interviews, and get paid for your work.
Lydia Gil teaches Spanish and Latin American literature at the University of Denver.
She reports on cultural and literary news for the Hispanic News Services of EFE, and is
the author of Mimí’s Parranda/La parranda de Mimí, a bilingual children’s book (Arte
Público 2007).
Reyna Grande
Novel Workshop: The Nuts and Bolts of Novel Writing
Do you have a novel inside you waiting to emerge, but the idea of writing it seems
daunting? In this workshop, you will receive tips on how to start your novel and how to
keep the momentum going until the end. You will also learn the key craft points of novel
writing (plot, structure, point-of-view, setting, character, voice, etc.). There will be an
in-class writing exercise if time allows.
10

Hopefully this is not a repeat. If it is, my apologies. The National Latino Writing COnference has many talented writers and faculty prepared to discuss important information and issues regarding publishing and writing for Latinos. I hope many educators also attend to learn more about their potential students. True writers never attend school and learn along the way to find their voice and style.

Don’t miss this packed full of information event. If you can’t attend, connect with faculty to see if videos and transcripts will be available.
