We heartily congratulate Edna Shochat of Boise, Idaho, author of the book Decent Exposure, winner in a national poetry competition.
You can read about the book on her website poeticamea.com and about the competition on the website of Woodrow Hall, PoetryJumpsOfftheShelf.com. Her book won the Top Five Selection award.
Decent Exposure was published by Poetica Mea. The author has decided not to list it for sale Amazon, but rather only at our local Indie bookstores. As such, it was launched last September [2024] at Rediscovered Books in Boise and made it into the their top 10 bestsellers of 2024 at No. 6 on the list, and the only local author.
We at IWU applaud Ms. Shochat’s success and local-oriented decisions. (By the way, she learned of the competition from the IWU website!)
