Newark Arts Alliance

By Amy Mercer

C. Delia Scarpitti, LM Columns Editor, will read from her work, Migration Summer and talk about the writing process at 2 p.m.,June 1 at the Newark Arts Alliance, 276 E. Main Street, Suite 102, Newark.

“I believe that my background as a poet has only enriched my fiction process. Unlike the contract between a writer and the reader in most prose, where sentences march politely one after another, poetry allows for wild leaps, for experimental magic, for divergent ideas to all bleed together in just one compact phrase. That transcendent magic of poetry is one I seek to carry over into the fiction genre. Just as a poem insists that we slow down and bring mindful attention to each line, so, too, can fiction writing at its best. This is what I
endeavor to do in my writing.” — C.D.S.
