That is crazy! I was in Florida a few weeks ago when it snowed.

To my writer friends. How do you feel about having to pay a submission fee to a journal (print or online)?

The crane and the turtle
after the passage of a thousand years
met I know not what, yet with
all the longing of my heart,
that is what I wish for you.

- An ancient Japanese poem, author unknown.

I don’t know why, but I just love this. It was a poem to a person on their 60th birthday.

It was a lovely evening. I read for about 25 minutes…

What a great evening last night. So honored to have read at the Millard Fillmore with so many other talented poets and song writers.

That would be awesome. Maybe someday!

If you’re in Cleveland Ohio this weekend, I’m the featured reader this Sunday at 6:00 at The Millard Fillmore Presidential Library. Afterwards there is an open mic session.

I just followed you!

Getting ready to start Left On Read by Jeri Rae. I had the privilege to hear her read a few weeks ago at The Dodge Poetry Festival.

Getting ready to start Pieces Of My Crumbled Thoughts by JRose.

I had a nice sunrise surprise this morning. I placed third in the Springfed Arts Writers Contest. So honored to have my poem chosen.

A great evening last night at PIF Cider. Thanks to Poetics Lab for arranging the reading!

It was so great to be back in Cleveland and to read last night at the Millard Fillmore. What a treat to see old friends.

The Nov. 1 First Wednesday Reading with Jeremy Proehl of Michigan and Jean Reinhold of Cleveland will be upstairs on the main stage at the Westside Bowl. 7:00. Co-host Betsy Barrickman. Open mic. Bring your stuff.
