Today, I’m featuring the admirable work of poet Robert Hayden.
“In Robert Hayden’s work the actualities of history and culture became the launching places for flights of imagination and intelligence. His voice characterized by musical diction and an exquisite feeling for the formality of pattern is a seminal one in American life and literature.”
— Arnold Rampersad

How many tabs are open?
When I work on a project, be that a book, an article, or while writing for my podcast, I’m the kind of creator who has 10-15 browser tabs open, files and images cluttering my desktop, and resources propped open from several places. It’s a messy system. It’s no system. But, I’m delighted by a new solution.
It’s called Kahana. A free service, platform, and tools to help with everything I want to make or plan. Optimal organization and clean and undistracted writing hubs are built-in. Now, just one navigable area holds my whole project that teem with files and resources—and it’s stress-free. What a salvation from wasted time and hassles!
