State Poets Laureate Contest Winner

A few weeks ago I ran a contest connected to my new book, The Crafty Poet: A Portable Workshop, which includes contributions of poems and craft tips from 56 poets, 13 of whom are current or former state poets laureate. The contest required people to match the 13 with their respective states. The winner was Gary Glauber. The prize was one copy of the book. Gary's book is on its way to his house right now.

Here's Gary's winning list:

JoAnn Balingit – Delaware
Kathryn Stripling Byer – North Carolina
Kelly Cherry – Virginia
Bruce Dethlefsen – Wisconsin
Patricia Fargnoli – New Hampshire
Julie Kane – Louisiana
Sydney Lea – Vermont
Denise Low – Kansas
Wesley McNair – Maine
Linda Pastan – Maryland
Stanley Plumly – Maryland
Marilyn Taylor – Wisconsin
Baron Wormser – Maine

And here again is the back cover with the full list of 56 contributors:
