“I was a little hesitant about reading this, as I am normally not big on poetry or fishing. But The Greatest Fish Story Never Told is a clever little chapbook of 40-ish poems that sucked me in from the fist one, “Gearing Up.” I found myself flying through this book, even with having to reread several of the poems to really get an understanding of where Sedlacek was coming from. She does a great job in incorporating humor, especially in poems like “Fish Don’t Buy Italian Ice.” Somehow this book really got me in a way that made me long for the days of casting the line. Maybe I’ll have to get out the old fishing pole and give it a try myself!”

Reading at Poetry Rendezvous – Aug 2019
Scenes from me and other wonderful poets reading at Poetry Rendezvous 2019. The event was held in Black Mountain, NC. The first day was at White Horse.
Review of “The Adventures of Stick People on Cars”
“It turns out LB Sedlacek is one of the most prolific writers of our time. I hardly had time to finish breakfast before two more poetry collections slipped into my omelet. In her latest, The Adventures of Stick People on Cars, you’ll be surprised how much flesh a stick figure can have. These poems, physically thin on the page, are wide with sentiment and even experiment. Take the marriage of what could be separate poems in the blended lines of “Magnificent Bully” as two seemingly separate stories collide together in an almost ekphrastic euphoria. In The adventures of Stick people…, you’ll miss LB’s dad right along with her. You’ll turn every page before your first cup of coffee becomes nostalgia. Watch out for bears.” ~Rick Lupert, author of Hunka Hunka Howdee! and God Wrestler: A Poem for Every Torah Portion

Poetry in LA added to the 3rd Grade Poetry Curriculum
Carly Schwartz and her team of 3rd Grade Teachers at Davenport A+ Elementary School recently were the recipients of a Grant awarding poetry books to their classrooms. The poetry books are by local area author and poet, LB Sedlacek.
Her poetry books, “Poetry in LA (Lenoir Area),” were purchased and placed in each 3rd Grade classroom. They are now part of the 3rd Grade poetry curriculum at the school.
