Today I go and deposit my Poetry Award checque--and run off more copies of my chapbooks-gave my friend who had a hip transplant a version of my crochet shawl.

I wore one for the poetry reading.

No photos available right now.

Regie Cabico was the judge.

My advice is if you write or paint, put your work out there--but get in a safe space first.

The villains will hit the dust--mark my words.
