BLOG THIS

Long time, no blog!

Not sure I'm really sold on the usefulness of blogging, which is why I so rarely pen my thoughts for public viewing. But now that this site has been listed under another website, I feel duty bound to do something.

So, here it goes....

Lately things have been pretty good writing wise!

Just got notification that one of my short stories will appear in a new anthology---GRAB THAT TIGER BY THE TAIL!
Chosen out of about 700 submissions, and I'm geeked!

I'm also working on a non-fiction book that has promising potential!
2 New York agents have expressed an interest.

Have also completed another poetry book manuscript.
April was CRAZY BUSY!!! Had several paid poetry performances. One in particular went really well--- Harold Washington Library reading. I sold several books and got lots of accolades. One lady said that she can hear all the greats reflected in my work (Gwen Brooks, Sonia Sanchez, etc.) Which was really a great compliment.

Spring has also brought about a bunch of house projects--- yard work, basement work, etc. which I enjoy somewhat.

All in all, life has been a blast (by and large)!

Have not decided whether or not to CLOSE THIS OPERATION DOWN, so if you're reading this article, post a blog and let me know what you think!

PEACE
