Some of the extra blobs appeared because when I stood outside waiting for my lift home it was very windy and wet out there.

This is too heart-breaking. It was very funny, you would have loved it, can't possibly recreate it, damn. <br /><br />Suffice it to say that I told you you're a good albeit tart critic, Little Miss What's Your Name. I will go buy the other two books. In passing, I enjoyed your godlessness comment on my post and wish to point out that Tolstoy's spiritual anarchy is actually blasphemous, which suits me because I have a long checkered history of anti-war demonstration in my youth in Barstow, California, a town of utter nothingness. I love your watercolor, especially the blob below the second tree from the left, which is where my previous comment got lost, so enough said.Enchanted Oakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14815997287116818456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6246801426821066145.post-50696799937732001752011-12-02T09:22:20.851+00:002011-12-02T09:22:20.851+00:00As for knowing these poets, EW, these are people I...As for knowing these poets, EW, these are people I know online more than in the flesh really. I suppose I know JoAnne best (because she stayed her once with the family) but that was a couple of years ago and we've hardly met up since (they live right across the country from us, may as well be another continent). Marion I have said 'hello' to once at the StAnza festival but other than that it's just online that I know her (again she lives a long way from here) and Ross I barely know at all (again a "hello" at StAnza - literally just a "hello" - and then he's visited the blog when it's been a subject that he's interested in... one long visit when I wrote about Richard Yates and "Revolutionary Road" back on the old blog). So I didn't feel too inhibited writing about these three. I think I was pretty honest with my views (but they are of course only my views... and I'm certainly not industry-standard, as it were...).<br /><br />xRachel Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11803852725693518924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6246801426821066145.post-87516683577179362782011-12-02T07:54:34.699+00:002011-12-02T07:54:34.699+00:00Glad you're enjoying them but really... no nee...Glad you're enjoying them but really... no need to quote me anywhere, any time!<br />xRachel Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11803852725693518924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6246801426821066145.post-28646755218304938592011-12-02T00:03:56.400+00:002011-12-02T00:03:56.400+00:00Great stuff, and I like the innovative way of tack...Great stuff, and I like the innovative way of tackling the pamphets.

Because I enjoy your work, I truly understand even more your comments.<br /><br />Ironically, the one weird thought I had of a non-poetic nature was, "Why did someone using such a lovely sepia photo pick that ghastly red type?"<br /><br />LOVE your watercolor, by the way!hopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03306622656461205674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6246801426821066145.post-58522450779083692732011-12-01T14:59:10.921+00:002011-12-01T14:59:10.921+00:00Cheers Juliet.
