I teach middle school English and enjoy reading and writing YA novels in verse. This will be my second half-marathon. Since last marathon, I have had my poetry appear in &#8220;Down in the Dirt Magazine&#8221; &amp; &#8220;Caterpillar Magazine&#8221; as well as &#8220;2019 Poetry Marathon Anthology.&#8221;\u00a0 I have always enjoyed sharing poetry with my students, but last year&#8217;s marathon inspired me to become involved in additional poetry writing opportunities. In April I discovered a teacher writer group #verseloveforteachres from Ethical ELA, and I spent every day in April writing poetry for poetry month. 30 poems in 30 days!\u00a0 The experience of writing poetry with other poetry lovers is a fantastic way of connecting with the world. It brings people together and helps us see our humanity more clearly. Can&#8217;t wait to write poetry with you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m Tammi, and I hail from a tiny burb of Cleveland, Ohio where I reside with my husband, three children and somewhat feral tabby cat.
