Admiring the work of others in the blogosphere... I found an interesting and informative blog by an accomplished haiku master from Maryland. Interesting that someone else stores thoughts about poetry and writing in a blog. The blog: https://starsinmysugarbowl.wordpress.com/. I like her 'buy me a coffee' link.
Bagel and cream cheese...I enjoyed it. It reminded me of deli orders so long ago. I liked to get breakfast at delis in Washington, DC before work.
I am currently working on stories and poems on President's College. I like what I have so far. It should be a good book. I also plan to submit an application for a particular job today. I will continue working on my compensation paper soon. I have some new ideas for the paper. A lot to do...
I am certain you have seen writings about life in and lessons from a small town (example: https://www.readunwritten.com/2015/04/03/what-growing-up-in-a-small-town-teaches-you-about-life/). My poembook is similar in a lot of ways. It includes informative poems about my important experiences in the town I grew up in with a summary of top lessons from growing up there. My life in Linden shaped who I became. See my book Growing Up In The Town Of Linden.

That Anne Carson, the new Nobel Prize winner, blurs lines/categories in literature was a surprise. I read with interest that she writes "novels in verse, essays that read like poems, and poems that read like philosophy." My book is similar (it blurs lines too). Wow!
Copies of my book have arrived! I received the box earlier today. Excited to have my book finally! Thank you to the publisher!
I could not believe the improvements. My work paid off. I saw publishing potential. (Note that the original paper was prepared in a hurry. Later, I was on a break - not taking/enrolled for classes.). Papers for publishing could be made public.
