A rare prose-poem of mine in Tough Poets Review. I wrote it about what happened to my husband two years ago...

TV-63 announced their Pushcart Nominees. "Every work in TV-63 beat incredible odds just to wind up in print. But to end up with a national literary award nomination? You wouldn’t want to make a bet on it in Vegas"-- Editor Matt McGee. I am so very honored to be one of them.

My contributor copy of Dark Hearts (Parsec Ink) arrived. Not only a great looking book with marvelous illustrations / superb content, it was packed so very sweetly too. I am honored to have a poem in it.

Now that my dog's turned 13, he's taken on a somewhat hell houndish aspect. Oh well, it fits around here!

An unusually matter-of-fact poem of mine is on page 1 of SHIFT Literary Magazine (Middle Tennessee State University). I see LindaAnn LoSchiavo @ghostlyverse.bsky.social has work in this issue too!

I've submitted to Triangulation for years, finally I have a poem in this anthology (although I'm not reading it virtually).

Estate sale asked $1 for hardbacks, 50 cents for paperbacks. I found the literary ones first then spotted the Alice's Restaurant cookbook--it wasn't until I got home that I noticed it had been autographed by Arlo Guthrie....yes (and it still has the record attached to the back cover too)!!

Unexpectedly poetical visual at the local nursery...

Finally cut open the last of 2024's pumpkins...this one had a gruesomely artistic soul.

Caught the end of a book sale at a small coastal library. The Wodehouse and the Cornwall = big finds, the rest were = "Why not, it's 5 bucks a bag at this point whether I buy 2 or all of these"...

Wall paper on wall paper...the 143 year history of our House is pasted to our walls. I've been trying to delicately save as much of it as I can as we fix the rooms up. Preserve and frame it all, perhaps?

Life, via oldest son's girlfriend's parents, gave us a huge amount of lemons. Home grown in California. Glorious. Sunshine in a basket. So we are making lemonade. Lemon sauce. Lemon everything. With help from a vintage Juice o Matic. I almost forgot it's cold outside here on the edge of the world.
