Well, our talks went well today. I took far less time speaking than I thought I would. I had several comments on my poem that I quoted in my talk. Kerry even suggested that I send it in to the Ensign - one of our church magazines. That might be really cool! As it is, I've got one poem entered into a poetry contest that is also being published in a poetry anthology currently entitled "Immortal Verses". They send me e-mails offering to let me buy the book for myself. Doesn't it make more sense to let the poets have their own copy for free? Or something like that? The asking price is, regrettably, far more expensive than I can afford.
Well, Thanksgiving is almost here, and less than a month after that... CHRISTMAS!!!!! Is anyone else as excited as I am?
I love your blog set up and I really like your posts... I noticed my name on here but not really sure who you are... I am thinking maybe Mary (as in Institute and past Seminary student) And book club friend, right?
ReplyDeleteHey Mary -
ReplyDeleteConsidering the fact that your family puts up your Christmas tree in September, I suspect no one is as excited as you and your family :) I am looking forward to it though and have moved furniture to accomodate the tree. It will go up on Thursday night or Friday.
