- You all seemed to dig these top poetry picks for National Poetry Month. (P.S. They were selected by Tim Inkster, so you know they’re top notch.)
- This great essay by Douglas Glover talks about how your novel can come alive if you treat it like a poem—that is, pay attention to the patterns that give prose its poetic quality.
- This list of copy editor pet peeves might make you cover your eyes in grammatical pain. Although there are a few bones of contention in here.
- Awards season is in full swing. The Atlantic Book Awards shortlist was announced.
- Not to be outdone, the Griffin Prize shortlist also made headlines.
That was this week in books. Remember to keep in touch via Facebook and Twitter, and feel free to leave a comment here on the blog with your own bookish news.
