Since my last post, I have been doing a lot of writing, but not here. So here are some connections:
Thanks to Mark Young, editor of Otoliths for accepting four of my recent 100 word stories.

I participated in an interview with Poet Bekah Steimel, read here:
How this interview happened:
Both Bekah and I have poems in recent issue Third Wednesday, and we are also a part of the 2018 Poet Bloggers Revival Tour. Bekah's poem in Third Wednesday is so poignant. I have read and reread it several times. In fact, the recent of Third Wednesday is so moving, especially now-- so much to admire. I am grateful for the online and print versions.
As you know, my Spring semester started at St. John Fisher College and The College at Brockport. I got the flu/cold/nasty cough, despite getting the flu shot. Somehow, with the grace of technology, I was able to keep my Tuesday class (two weeks ago) on track virtually. So not a beat was skipped.
My acceptances for January 2018 (poems, fictions, CNF, reviews) reached 25. So grateful to all of the editors who have given my work ascent. I am equally grateful to the poets and writers who are communicating with me. Thank you for your conversations.
Stay warm!
