Oh Jody, you know how deeply I love the work you're doing - it's like all those years of preparation were leading to the way you're bringing others to poetry in such beautiful, miraculous ways. I've always LOVED poetry but have been afraid of writing it, for some reason. You give me courage!

Oh dear Kristin, you are my people. Thank you for your encouragement...God's way of preparing us is a mystery, but I am here for it!

((also, stay tuned; "Making Friends with Poetry" workshops are unfolding as we speak....))

Dear SE, thank you so much for your comment and the story of the writing course that you, shall we say, took in a new direction?

I also appreciate the grammar tip, altho I'm actually not sure exactly what to do next time I have the same conundrum. I do however have the biggest grin on my face....

I'm sorry to have taken you away from your seamstressing/fabric cutting project, but I'm delighted that you did so. And I'm tickled to hear that you'd like to read my new book, which I will shamelessly plug here for you, giving you the link. https://jodyleecollins.com/mining-the-bright-birds/

Again, thanks so much for reading, it's grand to be connected!
