“I can only note that the past is beautiful because one never realises an emotion at the time. It expands later, and thus we don't have complete emotions about the present, only about the past.”

Have you read MIchael Smith's first poetry collection, How To Make a Mummy? I would heartily recommend it.
Louise, you have such an interesting bio. Thanks for the add. If you have time, I'd love for you to visit my web site, www.jeanniebarber.com. I'm a novice writer so feel free to make any kind of suggestions, ideas or thoughts to correct it. I’m co-authoring a novel with Patty Wiseman, another friend on Goodreads. We’ve known each other for over 30 years. While you're there, please sign the guestbook, too! There’s also a link to our book you can click on…clairkelley@synthasite.com. This site is brand new and in the editing stage as is our story. Please visit it as well. We’re both very green, but we’ve met so many people on this site willing to reach out and offer advice or a guiding hand. Thanks,
Jeannie
Your book sounds like a great read. You might like my poetry/short stories book. Thanks for the add! Pleasure to meet you!Kelly Moran

Hey Louise. I just read your poem on Anti. Good stuff!
Hi Louise,Thanks for making the connection. It has been a while since I was in LB. Is the Library Cafe still there on 4th Street?
All the best in 2008!
