congratulations.:) I'd love to read some of your poetry sometime.

that could happen. i try not to bring it out unsolicited as that seems to be a mark of bad poetry, but let me know and i would be happy to share. i have not been posting much of my poetry in lj as i am trying to avoid 'prior publication'.
