I am a professional singer who recently has become a great admirer of Elizabeth Bishop's writing. I am also fond of walking and nature. I became involved with the Elizabeth Bishop Centenary because I wanted to have her poems set to music so that I could sing them.

Loved this interview. I can relate to the challenge of financing a literary project that you're passionate about...and funding it largely out of your own pocket! www.literarytourist.com
ReplyDeleteAm particularly interested in the story around place, and how Ms. Leblanc encountered Elizabeth Bishop... ie. the house, town, Avalon walk etc...would like to explore how this in turn motivated the desire to create and celebrate.
