Who are the brilliant women poets who published their first books after the age of 40? I want to make a list to inspire my students to hold fast to their dreams.

I'm so excited to meet our writing retreat community.
A few minutes ago, I chatted with a 'starting out' writer. It was wonderful to share our thoughts. Each time I start a new poem, I'm back to the exciting, daunting feeling of being a new writer... X https://t.co/fIGCQyK6T0
