Up early, but not for school. Packing and tending to the house and Martha June, so I can get on the road to Maryland for the Eastern Shore Writers Association annual conference. The last face-to-face conference I attended was Pre-Covid and in Greensboro, NC. I stayed at my sister's house. Having never been to Easton, I am excited. I am also thrilled to meet in-person all my writer friends I have met through ESWA. The session I need the most, " Titles Like Blackbirds: Exploring Different Ways"  with  G. H. Mosson. My titles are always a bit weary.... hope to see some of you there.

 Lucky enough to  be the feature poet by Samantha Terrell @  https://samanthaterrell. weebly.com/featured-poets . And am very excited to be heading to Easton, MD for the Eastern Shore Writers Association Conference this Friday. 

  I am home today and Kelly is in NYC. Martha June is resting and Gigi is  upstairs. A quiet house equals time to write and update my page. I am honored to have two poems up at the Rat's Ass Review . The poems are listed alphabetical by name....and I have also posted them below this note. Please enjoy.

  It was a good week for my poetry. I received an acceptance from Schuylkill Valley Journal (Summer 2023 Print) and an invitation for a week long residency @ Rockvale Writers' Colony for August 2023.

 Yesterday was a good day for writing. My piece in  https://ofrustandglass.com/scars-poetry/ was published and then I was featured in the ESWA newsletter @ https://www.easternshorewriters.org/SpotlightWriters. It has rained nonstop here in Hampton Roads, but no snow in sight. Enjoy the first day of the month-Rabbit, Rabbit, Rabbit...

 The sale on my book continues today. My heart, my soul, and my pocketbook would be honored if you would purchase a copy or three.  http://bit.ly/ justaspitdowntheroad
