<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>"March Marchness" is a Haiku anthology from various authors exploring their individual experiences of March 2019. We explored topics ranging from parenthood to grief, lingering winter to the sun breaking through, despair and hope. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>A pandemic ago, in a world not so very far away, but also, so. very. different . . . it was the penultimate March Madness before the Maddest March of all when March Madness got cancelled by the nefarious Covid-19 pandemic. A merry band of 15 struggling but not starving poets set off on an adventure to put a wee plot twist not a pandemic into March Madness since none of them could play basketball. But they could write poetry. One dark and snowy night in the middle of my winter is my discontent, I (Joules Evans) and my daughter (Amanda Benton) decided to throw down a "spring is in the air" kinda themed haiku challenge to my writing group aka #writeclub. We called it March Marchness. The mission was to write a haiku a day during the month of March. We had no clue who won the basketball that year, nor that the next year there would be no basketball and we would all be on lockdown going mad during the Maddest March of all time. Yet here we are in September 2020. "We're all mad here" now in this mad, mad world'. March has come and gone like a slam dunk without a basketball. But the poetry remains and because the world needs #morepoetry, and now more than ever, you hold this little postcard from March the way it was, snapshots in the form of haiku, which are snapshots of moments in time, in your hand. Without making much ado about nothing, we have made much ado about haiku in this, our humble March Marchness offering. </p><p>Peace, love, & poetry, </p><p>Joules Evans</p><p><br></p>
