Because the editors of HeartLodge have a variety of other literary projects they are working on, the poetry journal is closed until further notice. Over a four-year period, we have loved meeting our loyal and talented poets through their words and dreams.
Andrea L. Watson is now the editor and publisher of HeartLodge: Honoring the House of the Poet.
The press may be reconfigured as a book publisher in the future.
If you have a project you believe might be of interest, from chapbook to book, do not hesitate to contact me at heartlodgepoets@gmail.com.
Also, please keep your poetic eye out for the following publications or projects:
A new book: Collecting Life: Poets on Objects Known and Imagined
A new venture: Three: A Taos Press
Too, let me know of your exciting new adventures.
Best always,
Andrea
