This Again







A little Haiku play...

My toes
must know there is
snow outside










My feet have never been so cold. Well, maybe last every winter. My friend Grace says it's time for double socks. I hate socks, and the cold feet, hands, warm hearth thingy pops into your my mind. It doesn't warm me up one bit.

Things are going well. My first 'short' book manuscript is done. Sent it out to beta readers, 'When Your Stomach Growls'. It is a humorous book indeed. A supplemental to the already growing survivalist books out there.

Working on new website. Barely breaking ground on design. Sigh. Lots of work will go into this one. We don't want a cartoon'ish title banner. Interviewing and getting bids on artwork. May end up doing it myself. Sigh. It means I have to learn Ai. Yet another program. Am I getting to old for all this classroom stuff. I feel like it at times, or more like a kid dragging her feet in through the front door.

Z-composition's submission deadline is midnight tonight. Editors and I are excited to get the first issue up February 1st!

And...don't forget Jessie Carty's 'Make Friday Write' posts. We share, and we care...

My son sent me a hungal writing book (Korean symbol journal) for mothers day, and then a I got a post card from Hong Kong. Little things mean so much.

Now a poem to be printed in the book for my son...

(Poem removed by author) Thanks and come back to view other works in progress...

I find that reading 60 or 100 pages of someone else's poetry gets my mind gearing towards editing my own or writing a snippet of a poem.
