Roz Chast at the Norman Rockwell Museum | Views from a Window Seat
https://jeannineatkinsonwritingandstuff.wordpress.com/2015/07/23/roz-chast-at-the-norman-rockwell-museum
Views from a Window Seat. Jeannine Atkins on Writing and Stuff. July 23, 2015. Roz Chast at the Norman Rockwell Museum. My husband gave me. Can’t We Talk About Something More Pleasant. When I thought I wasn’t in the mood. His mother was then very sick and requiring care. But the brave truth, humor, and poignance Roz Chast. Many original pages of this moving book, framed one above another, currently take up a big room in the Norman Rockwell Museum. The exhibit also features picture books she wrote and ill...

Views from a Window Seat. Jeannine Atkins on Writing and Stuff. July 30, 2015. The Art of Revision, and Learning from Harper Lee and Dr. Seuss. I’m currently revising a collection of narrative verse about girls and science called. There were lots of drafts before it landed on my editor’s desk, including some in which members of my writing group wrote Huh? Beside some lines. I cleaned up most of those lines, but a few got through, and my editor wrote things like: Possible to make your meaning clearer?
Celebrating Baba Yaga’s Assistant | Views from a Window Seat

Views from a Window Seat. Jeannine Atkins on Writing and Stuff. August 5, 2015. Celebrating Baba Yaga’s Assistant. It was a happy night at the Odyssey Bookshop. Who not so long ago directed the children’s department, back to talk about her first book, the graphic novel. Someone asked why, being an artist, Marika hadn’t illustrated the book herself. She explained that the style she had in mind for the story wasn’t her own, and that as an illustrator she’d also trained as an art director, knowing how t...

Views from a Window Seat. Jeannine Atkins on Writing and Stuff. July 16, 2015. Stones at Sleepy Hollow. I can’t believe I just asked a stranger for a ride, the woman walking beside me said, while pausing to take a picture of a sign for Alcott Road. And I can’t believe I said yes, I replied, turning to see if she might get a shot from the other direction that would include Orchard House. But we knew it was all right. We’d both left behind wonderful people at the Summer Conversational Series. Before he scu...

Views from a Window Seat. Jeannine Atkins on Writing and Stuff. August 7, 2015. Enchanted Air: Two Cultures, Two Wings a Memoir by Margarita Engle. Flight and sky are images that recur through this verse memoir of the first fourteen years of the author’s life. We see Margarita Engle. Her family is regarded by neighbors with some cruel suspicion, but Margarita finds her own courage as her mother finds hers. They both struggle with homesickness, finding their places between two lands and languages....A wor...

Views from a Window Seat. Oct 11th, 2013. Rhymes on the Closet Floor. I generally write more free verse than formal, since I like working with the facts of history, which give me some structure, and the needs of narrative, with most of my poems following another as they build a world on the page. These poems are shaped by images, which echo through repetition. The echoing sounds of words we call rhyme would be too much. Followed by: Why didn’t I ever see that? Which is a lovely place to play. I want a li...

Saturday, April 25, 2015. Bruce Jenner: The Interview … just wow! Photo cred: ABC News. For me, the interview had two key themes - Bruce’s decision and the struggle that comes with living one’s truth. Fast forward to the 2010’s. He’s filming the biggest reality show in the world. He thinks to himself that with all their various story lines, he has the ultimate story … if only he was willing to tell it. Bruce’s decision was not an easy one. In addition to his children, he has an 80 year-old cons...Are lon...
