Dear Family and Friends,

Happy July! I am excited to announce that my poem “I Am From!” was voted Publication of the Month for June at Spillwords Press!!! 🎉

I am so excited to receive this award and recognition! Thank you to Dagmara K. and her team for providing a welcoming literary site for authors to share their emotions through words. It is truly an honor to be a part of the Spillwords Press community!

I offer my deepest gratitude to YOU for your ongoing support and vote, and for initially visiting Spillwords to read my poem, “https://spillwords.com/i-am-from/!” I am also humbled that my version of George Ella Lyon’s “Where I’m From” resonated with so many. And I’m grateful to Lori and Vicki for providing the writing inspiration. Please visit their beautiful blogs if you haven’t had the pleasure of meeting them yet. They are amazing and talented women, whom I call friends in this warm community!

Reflections

“I Am From” is displayed on the sidebar at Spillwords.com for the month of July if you’d like to take a peek!

A little more mush, thanks again from the bottom of my heart!
And I wish you a happy and peaceful month of July! ❤️

      1. You’re welcome. 😊 I just read your book, Cora’s Quest – the eBook version since I gave the hard copies away as presents. 🎁🙃 Uplifting message with adorable illustrations. Will write a review before week is over. 👍🏻

      2. Ahh, you just made my day, Michele! Thank you for your wonderful (short) review! 🙂 I’m so glad you enjoyed Cora’s story, and can’t wait to read your thoughts. 💕🙏🌻

    1. Thank you, thank you, Brian! Who knew my version would make it this far?! I certainly didn’t. But that’s the ‘self doubt lodged on my shoulders.’ 😊 I’m thrilled though and truly appreciate your wonderful support and words. ❤️

    1. Thanks so much, Resa! I was up against tough competition, so I was surprised. But I’m thrilled and enjoying the glow. 🙂 And your words are always so kind, and I continue to feel humbled by them. Lots of love and hugs to you, my friend!

  41. Congratulations on the publication. This is a wonderful poem. I want to give a shout-out to Lifeiswhine for mentioning and sharing a link to your page. It bloggers like her that make the possibility of discovery on WordPress possible. On another note, I’ve had a few poems published on Spillwords. However, the last few that I had submitted for review was met with silence. I didn’t get an acceptance or rejection response which was strange, but I’ll keep trying. Has the ever happened to you?

    Peace, TheRhymeRula

    1. Thanks for your kind words, and for visiting my blog from Pooja’s. That was very kind of her. Honestly, I haven’t had that happen before. You could always reach out to the editor and see if you could get some feedback. I’m sure they’re inundated with submissions, so it’s probably common. I would keep trying though, definitely! And I think it’s wonderful that you’ve had work published on Spillwords too. It’s an honor to me. Thanks again!
