Love can bring about a change

Thanks to Wendy for pointing out my little mug in the latest issue of Poets & Writers. Hadn't seen that yet, so I picked it up: the listing for the Prairie Schooner Prize in their recent winners section. Cool.

And speaking of Notes, things are beginning to speed along. I had to fill out an AIF, an Author Information Form, five pages of questions about me and the book and my thoughts on its marketing and the like. I'm terrible at that sort of thing so I stumped through. Plus, I found out yesterday I'll be getting copy-edits to proof in two weeks, which is exciting.

It's really happening.

Rain. Blah. I become a shut-in during autumn/winter. Not a fan.

I've been using the new Firefox browser, Firefox 2, and like it a lot. It's not drastically different from the previous version. It still beats the pants of Explorer.

Writing is slow right now. I need a kick in the head. Volunteers?

Hi Paul,

I saw your photo in P&W - Too cool. I'm excited for your next book.

And I'll have to pass on the "kick in the head" volunteer. My plate is already full with "slaps across the face" and "noogies" for a few other non-writing poets. Though, when they're back in shape, I'll be first in line with my kicking shoes on. I'm such a good friend.

Take care and keep us posted on the book!

Best,
Kelli (R. A.)
