Exciting News

Exciting news! One of my non-fiction essays was chosen as a finalist in The New Southerner 2009 Literary Prize Contest! My essay - "I Dream of My Past" - will appear in a future issue of the magazine and in the 2009-2010 Anthology.

"I Dream of My Past" is a piece I wrote about my grandparents farm and the experiences I had there. After the piece has been published, I will post it here for everyone to read.

Yikes! Boy, I leave blogging for about three weeks and look at what I miss (If it wasn't for pre-posting, I wouldn't have had a blog at all in December!)

Congratulations -- that is such good news -- you've had a lot of good news.

Reading through several of your deep and thought-provoking poems. You so know how to go into the soul -- that's a real gift.
