Incredible!
I just started blogging last week, and it is a pleasure that I came across your blog.
It has inspired me to publish my first article.
Thank you 🙂

    That may be so, but something tells me you add a touch of class to any event. They’re lucky to have you.

Reblogged this on Leigh's Wordsmithery and commented:
The inimitable poet Robert Okaji and a few literary friends are providing some enlightenment on April 15; if you’re in the States, you’ll probably want all the light you can get that dread day! Check them out if you’re in the Texas neck o’ the woods. #poetry #amreading #NationalPoetryMonth #NPM16

  Thanks for reblogging this, Leigh. Just back from the rural property – a weekend of hauling brush, dying cell phones, depleted propane tanks and other worries. It’s good to be home to my urban shack. 🙂
