Hi, I'm Lori Desrosiers. I live in Westfield and have been writing seriously for about 15 years now. I edit two literary journals, Naugatuck River Review and Wordpeace.co. My most recent book of poems is "Keeping Planes in the Air" (Salmon Poetry) Please sponsor me to write a poem-a-day for 30 Poems in November, a literary fundraiser for Center for New Americans. Center for New Americans welcomes and serves immigrants in Western Massachusetts with free English classes and a range of support services. For more information, please visit: http://www.cnam.org/ This year, we aim to raise over $50,000. Writers do their part by writing one poem each day in November. Friends and family do their part by donating to support this effort. Powerful new poems and financial contributions translate to community support for immigrants.
