I’ve been absent more than present here, but even so, Sally’s generosity shines when she emails me to let me know about her summer book fair and that my poetry collection, King Copper, will be amongst the highlighted books. This is thrilling because if Copper touches another heart through my tribute to him then my heart is touched as well. But I’m also honored to be among such talented authors such as Balroop Singh and Nicole Sara, both of whose books have graced my home library. So, thank you again, Sally! I invite you all to click on over to check out this fabulous book fair! Happy reading!

I hope you are enjoying your summer! We are traveling to the east coast next month to visit our son, daughter & son-in-law, and then a week later, we’ll enjoy respite by our favorite lake. I might even write some poetry! 🙂 I’m still nose-deep in several writing projects.
Anyway, thanks for popping in, and I hope joy embraces you in whatever you do! ❤️
