Welcome to !poi4′:;!poe’!';;!mbassy::!oip3′:: (Poembassy Bombing), the weblog of the writer and poet Eric Goddard-Scovel. If you want to know more about him and his blog, you’ve come to the right place.
Blurb
A 2009 graduate of the MFA program in poetry at Purdue University, Eric Goddard-Scovel currently lives in Lafayette, IN with his wife Ekeama, teaching as a lecturer while she completes her PhD. He is originally from Polo, Illinois, a small town not far from the Rock River and far from most everything else. On December 19, 2009, he married the brilliant, passionate and sexy Ekeama Goddard, and may someday live a good part of his life with her on the wonderful island of St. Lucia.
Blogs
I post here semi-regularly with my thoughts, discoveries and publications. My interests mainly revolve around poetry, music, art, politics, and Buddhism. My other blog, Markovian Parallax Generate, deals with a computer program (mchain) I have used to write poetry. It also documents my experiments with Gnoetry 0.2 and related ideas/processes in poetics. If you would like to download and install Gnoetry 0.2 (not a simple task if you don’t run Ubuntu Linux) you can learn about that there as well.
Web Editing
From the summer of 2007 through the spring of 2008, I was the web editor for the Sycamore Review Weblog. I currently am an administrator and contributing member (eRoGK7) of the group computer poetry blog Gnoetry Daily, and I am web editor of / occasional contributor to the online journal of downtown New York poetry, FOFOOS.
Publications
Chapbook
His first collection of work, the e-chapbook a light heart, its black thoughts, was published online (and is free to read) by Beard of Bees Press in March of 2009.
