The Stream Singing Your Name: Tanka and Sijo
Product Page   • Press Release


Jean LeBlanc grew up in Fitchburg, Massachusetts, and has lived in the wilds of northwestern New Jersey since 1994. Her poetry has appeared in numerous journals, including the Lullwater Review, Journal of New Jersey Poets, The Kerf, Modern Haiku, Frogpond (the journal of the Haiku Society of America), Ribbons (the journal of the Tanka Society of America), and Modern English Tanka. Two of her poems are included in the anthology The Muse Strikes Back (Story Line Press, 1997); three in The Final Lilt of Songs (South Mountain-Watchung Poets, 2008). Her book Just Passing Through: Tanka, Haiku, Haibun was published by the Paulinskill Poetry Project of Andover, New Jersey, in 2007; she is also the editor of Voices from Here, an anthology of local poets to be published by the Paulinskill Poetry Project in 2009. When not writing—well, she is always writing, though sometimes the writing looks like gardening, reading, teaching, seeing.

The Stream Singing Your Name: Tanka and Sijo was nominated for The Pushcart Prize in 2009.
