JourneyNotes: Writing for Recovery and Spiritual Growth

No matter where we are in our lives, writing can be a powerful tool for reflection and self-discovery. Keeping a journal can be a valuable process for gaining clarity, balance, and honesty, as well as for dealing with issues that are difficult to address aloud. From fiction and letters to stream of consciousness and poetry, JOURNEYNOTES shows how each form offers a special means to self-awareness. With compelling examples from journals kept by literary greats -- from Nobel Prize winners to Anais Nin and Gary Soto -- and powerful testaments of student writers and writers in recovery, these empowering voices help us to explore the varied landscapes of "words that heal."

"In her first collection of poetry, Lloyd extends women's linguistic range by leading the way toward affirming a language power which is feminine and which, for many women writers, has been repressed."--Iowa Woman

Roseann Lloyd's new collection is a book written by a confident American poet at the height of her powers. Lloyd enters the lives of people on several continents, then creates poems that balance and juxtapose northern and southern light; lyric joy and reports of injustice; myths and stories, told to her by people she met on her travels. In poetic forms from western and eastern traditions—such as the ghazal, the prose poem—Lloyd writes of love, poverty, beauty, work, children, war, the life of the body and the spirit.Roseann Lloyd's War Baby Express (Holy Cow! Press, 1996) won the Minnesota Book Award for Poetry. A recipient of the Bush Foundation Fellowship, she lives in Minneapolis.[bullet, under the cover]o Available for National Poetry Month

"This a book about that place inside us all where bafflement meets mystery: a strange place, sometimes frightening and sometimes filled with stars and pines, clear flowing water and the deep joy of companionship."—Jim MooreRoseann Lloyd's new poetry collection takes us on a sister's unflinching exploration into grief for a brother lost on a solo hike in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness in northern Minnesota. His clothes are found but not his body. How does one mourn without a body? This absence calls up memories of his life and mixed emotions; it evokes other disappearances—children missing in Iraq, climbers lost on Everest, a college student drowned.Even though I've said, for two years now, I don't need his bodyto do my mourning, I'm suddenly desperateto touch your arms, muscled and tan . . .Full of verbal energy and rich patterns of sound, Lloyd's lines are allowed to breathe and move about in always interesting forms: prose poems, found poems, section poems, swirling mosaics of time and place. Beautifully crafted, the poems are emotionally complex yet accessible.Roseann Lloyd has published eight books, including three poetry collections: Because of the Light (Holy Cow! Press), War Baby Express (Holy Cow! Press—awarded the Minnesota Book Award for Poetry), and Tap Dancing for Big Mom (New Rivers Press). The anthology she co-edited with Deborah Keenan, Looking for Home: Women Writing About Exile (Milkweed Editions), was awarded an American Book Award. She lives in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
