Editor's Desk
Treat yourself or your
friends to the gift of poetry! This month we introduce a new monthly
feature, the Book Fair pages where members of the OutlawPoets can
display their craft in a published book. The books displayed in this
segment of Sketchbook make wonderful gifts for poetry fans,
bibliophiles, and yourself.
We hope that you will patronize these writers and purchase their books.
If you have a book to sell please send the publishing information to
Karina@poetrywriting.org. Subject: Book Fair + your name.
Blue ribbons to each of the fifteen OutlawPoets who participated in the
first Sketchbook kukai; the results appear in this issue.
Fifteen poets submitted eighty-four haiku. All fifteen poets also
participated in the voting! The results are tabulated below.

The kigo for the November
kukai was November rain or early winter.
The kigo for the December issue is “outerwear” meaning the garments
humans wear. Rita Odeh will shepherd this monthly feature.
A big thank you to every writer and artist who contributed to the
November issue. Without your contributions there would be no e-zine.
Now, I am going to sit down for a while and read the November 2006
Sketchbook!
