The release of the ReadWritePoem NaPoWriMo anthology, in which Maya will be featured, has been delayed. Once the anthology has been released online at www.issuu.com and at the ReadWritePoem site, we will post a link on the homepage and the 'news' page.
The Read Write Poem NaPoWriMo Anthology is still in production. Selection, placement, layout and copyediting are taking longer than anticipated. Thank you for your patience. I hope to have the piece completed in July.
