Amazing news for the Folding Mirror poetry form, and all those who have contributed and supported it here and elsewhere.
After Caroline Gill alerted admin to the opportunity, I sent off some details and examples to Lewis Turco, who is considered to be one of the highest authorities on poetry after the publishing of his The Book on Forms, and it subsequently becoming regarded as the book of reference for poetry forms.
I’m very happy to let you know that Lewis Turco has now accepted the Folding Mirror as a new poetry form, and included it’s description and poem examples by Caroline Gill and Claire Knight on his website of new odd and invented forms. The list is in alphabetical order, and the Folding Mirror appears under that name. The website is a gathering place for new forms, and there could be a new book that includes them in the near future.
I hope you enjoy visiting the site, and thanks again to everybody who has made it possible. Have a great weekend!
Congratulations Marc, and to Clare and Caroline. I have followed your folding mirror poems on the site. Impressed with those on the solar system. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for your messages Janet and Bob. And also to Janet for her FM poems and support, and Bob for following the site. Have a great week.
This is precedent setting – good work Marc. It has certainly paid off.
Follow your passion
Janet
