Hey ... I could be a Latino poet, right?

Part of the appeal of this job in Spain is that I'd be relatively isolated and have a lot of free time on my hands. Could be a recipe for depression, but I'm looking at it as an opportunity to get some fiction writing done.

I'm trying to write a flurry of poetry in the next month to enter a competition for a previously unpublished Latino poet. The prize? $1,000 and publication of a book of poems by University of Notre Dame Press. All I need is to write 50 - 100 pages of poems and mail in a manuscript.

I'm going to keep a separate blog for that project and other fiction-type projects. Here's the link:
The Saddest Viking. It's the name of a short story that I can't ever seem to finish.
