Dear Cindy, Lori and Booksharian Friends, Cindy, you’re right to put a single asterisk between verses of poems. It’s a helpful cue to braille readers that they are still within the same poem particularly when there is more than one poem on a page. It helps even more when a poem is within a prose text. The single asterisk shows blank lines between verses. The * * * shows blank lines between the break from text and beginning of the poem and the blank line between the end of the poem and the resumption of text. Lori, Welcome back. Were you still on list when Madeline announced that Penguin and all it’s offspring had signed with bookshare? They’ve been one of my favorite publishers since college. Always with love, Lissi From: Cindy Rosenthal Sent: Thursday, March 27, 2014 4:50 AM To: bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [bksvol-discuss] was -- what to use between stanzas never mind--I remembered As I started to put something ...
