Autobiographical

My full-length book, Where We Think It Should Go, can be yours via Octopus Books, Small Press Distribution, or Amazon. We better celebrate these hard copies while we can. When I'm not writing poetry, I teach amazing young people who are blind. I believe in a healthier future.

Obscenity

LLB takes issue with my adverb placement of "anymore" in the sentence, "Anymore I don't know anyone who lives in this neighborhood except some neighbors, whom I don't know."

I say that's totally allowed! Allowed and awesome! Please respond.

Claire: do you want to say anything?
LLB: No! you just said what I said? I said what I said. You said what i said. it's on there! .... you just want a partner in crime on this blog. i know what's going on here.

Okay, I will not delete this blog. Yet.

Off to play tennis (for half an hour).

P.S. word of the day c0-written by LLB.

I think there should have been a comma after "anymore", but otherwise I like it.

Also, I think you look like me in that sketchy picture.

hmmm, maybe you're right. i used to be so good with adverbs. in that picture,--it's deceiving--i have a visible mouth, nose & eyes.

Claire, this is really getting ridiculous. Do you ONLY blog when I'm around??
