Concrete & River: March 2015
http://www.susangillis.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
ON POETRY AND THE WRITING/READING LIFE. A PAGE FROM MY NOTEBOOK. POET, EDITOR, MENTOR. March 25, 2015. SANDRA RIDLEY: A POEM. Priska Wettstein, courtesy of Red Edge Images. And liable to rapture. In the hours before dawn. We’re beckoned to the lake. Our salvage—shivering by the weeds. Revenant, we falter toward the good—. For the smallest amount of the most worthless thing. And with shy sweats. And the cold we’re night-blind by. Of a slaughterhouse—. Sandra Ridley is the. Author of three books of poetry:.
Concrete & River: My First Poem Was Jacked, Every Line: Larissa Andrusyshyn in Conversation
http://www.susangillis.blogspot.com/2015/06/my-first-poem-was-jacked-every-line.html
ON POETRY AND THE WRITING/READING LIFE. A PAGE FROM MY NOTEBOOK. POET, EDITOR, MENTOR. June 17, 2015. My First Poem Was Jacked, Every Line: Larissa Andrusyshyn in Conversation. SUSAN GILLIS: How did you first come to poetry- or how did poetry come to you? LARISSA ANDRUSYSHYN: My first poem was jacked, every line stolen, or fed to me by my mom for a father's day card, which you can see in the picture. My spelling has not improved. I think that the subjects that draw me are often a nice tangle of comic and...
Concrete & River: So Awesomely Cheeky: In Conversation with Linda Besner

ON POETRY AND THE WRITING/READING LIFE. A PAGE FROM MY NOTEBOOK. POET, EDITOR, MENTOR. July 15, 2015. So Awesomely Cheeky: In Conversation with Linda Besner. SUSAN GILLIS: How did you first come to poetry—or, if you prefer, how did poetry come to you? Then in Cégep I got interested in the Greeks—I still have my little copy of Richmond Lattimore’s translation of Greek Lyrics with notes from when I was seventeen—“Opposes the heroic view of ‘Come back with your shield or on it&...I think I was attracted to ...
Concrete & River
http://www.susangillis.blogspot.com/2015/04/a-poem-ive-read-dozens-of-times-over.html
ON POETRY AND THE WRITING/READING LIFE. A PAGE FROM MY NOTEBOOK. POET, EDITOR, MENTOR. April 16, 2015. A poem I've read dozens of times over the years suddenly appears as though I'd never seen it before. This is not unlike the effect of spring's first blossoms. Has the world ever seemed so charged? When the book fell open to "Elegy," I remembered this was the poem I'd been waiting for all my life. Translated by Robin Fulton). I open the first door. It's a large sunlit room. And makes the porcelain tremble.
Concrete & River: Cassidy McFadzean: A Poem
http://www.susangillis.blogspot.com/2015/08/cassidy-mcfadzean-poem.html
ON POETRY AND THE WRITING/READING LIFE. A PAGE FROM MY NOTEBOOK. POET, EDITOR, MENTOR. August 3, 2015. Cassidy McFadzean: A Poem. We return to places we’ve already been. The path outside the city pulls us in. Winter kept our footprints whole,. Mud-covered fossils hidden under snow,. So walking on old steps weighs the negatives of who. We were against the imprints of what we’ve become. This year, my body is locust-thwacked. Their buzzing bodies struck my skin. And landed on tilled earth, whirling insects.

a mere thread: These Memories We Sew
http://amerethread.blogspot.com/2014/10/these-memories-we-sew.html
Saturday, October 25, 2014. These Memories We Sew. I never really learned how to sew. Sure, I've taken some classes, and I know the basics of using a machine: I can thread a very ugly bobbin and sew a straight line. But start talking to me about selvage and darts and "the bias," and I get a stress pain in my right shoulder blade. It's there now, and I'm just writing about this stuff. Enter this little fairy:. She's such a good kid, and when I happened to ask her what she wanted to be for Halloween at pre...
a mere thread: December 2014
http://amerethread.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 26, 2014. I "liked" friends' Facebook photos of present openings and tired faces. When my brother sent me a video of his son reacting to the big reveal ( Santa! I delighted, damn it, in my nephew's excitement and refused to have A Big Cry over having missed that moment with my own kid. I was not practicing an attitude of gratitude, thank you very much, but rejecting the idea that to miss Christmas morning is to lose something irretrievable. He'll make you cry. Mouse regards Vivian as her...
a mere thread: The Chill of November
http://amerethread.blogspot.com/2014/11/the-chill-of-november.html
Saturday, November 15, 2014. The Chill of November. This has been a bear of a month. But what kind of bear? I'm thinking polar bear with a bloody snout. Polar bears make for cute stuffed animals, but they are wild creatures who, if they stumbled upon you on a snowy tundra, would have no qualms about eating you. All the better if you are fishy. Soexpect to receive a letter from me soon. Other things that have weighed on me this month, not ranked according to consequence:. Do Bill and I? I seem to have bee...

a mere thread: Beyond!
http://amerethread.blogspot.com/2014/07/beyond.html
Saturday, July 19, 2014. Letters, letters, and more letters litter the texts of old. The first novels were epistolary, collections of fictional letters. Today we send very few letters. We prefer email and texting and Facebook and Twitter and Instagram (although for the life of me I cannot figure out Instagram). Even holiday cards have sacrificed their handwritten content, stock though it might have become, to photos of children and a hastily scrawled "Happy Holidays! A letter from Hemingway! I have to ma...

a mere thread: August 2014
http://amerethread.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 29, 2014. Yesterday we went to the zoo, all three of us, plus Laura from Child Life. It was Vivian's first time off the hospital grounds in four weeks, and she was delighted to be out and about. Aside from seeing giraffes, her favorite part of our three-hour furlough might have been the van ride itself and the wheelchair lift into and out of the van. I shouldn't think such things, let alone so close to my daughter's surgery date. I should envelope that idiot in love and healing, and th...

July 14, 2015. July 14, 2015. Liners, Gliders and Automobiles. Another week in the life of an Orcanadian! I just thought I’d throw in that plug for my cousin; Sue’s work is much more eloquent and cerebral than any limerick (or Haiku) that I – or anyone else who writes limericks – would be able to come up with! A few Disney characters even made an appearance on deck as the ship was getting ready to leave. Yep, a selfie, because that’s what we do with cruise liners now. I did a few other things this past w...
a mere thread: September 2014
http://amerethread.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 21, 2014. My god, I think, can we do this by ourselves? Vivian had a job for me to do today. I was to repair Teddy, one of two stuffed animals she's had since she was very small. (The other is Bunny. Bunny has been through a lot, including a night in the gutter outside Tacoma's El Guadalajara- who hasn't been there? Vivian took this photo of Bunny I on Valentine's Day of 2010. Bunny's overnight in the gutter. Imagine the "after" shot. Here they are, all packed and ready to go. Poor Tedd...
a mere thread: May 2014
http://amerethread.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 28, 2014. Grade—and her dad. The girl was having a cast sawed off her leg, and from the bits of conversation I overheard I gathered that she had broken her leg skiing- for the second time. As it turns out, he was right. It didn’t matter that I thought he was overreacting or that the girl met his question with laughter and minor annoyance and the explanation, “They were accidents. 8221; “Yeah,” she said. Miserable still. I asked, “Are you ever going to ski again? I have to believe her dad h...

Susan is a Portrait Artist. Welcome to my website! I then decide the appropriate size for the painting, whether it should be on canvas or masonite board, in oil or acrylic, with chalk or pencil, and I take the combination of photos I feel best represent what I have in mind. I then let an image form, and once it is there, it seems to stay. I love to teach drawing and painting to those around me, and offer classes for both children and adults at my studio. My attorney husband Frank and I bought the histori...
