It's fall, soon to be winter, and here in Southwest Virginia everything is dying back. Yet I've planted some new seeds in anticipation of spring and National Poetry Month, thanks to the generous funding of the City of Roanoke and the National Endowment of the Arts.

You may wonder what in the world I have been up to lately, and let me say - a lot. April is a rollercoaster and I'm not strapped in. Please expect me to be absolutely mad over here.
