One of my poems is up – as a podcast and a “readable” poem – at qarrtsiluni today, for their “Health Issue:” “Advice From the Robot Scientist’s Daughter.”
And, it’s congrats in order for the girls today! January O’Neil, Nin Andrews, and Allison Benis White all had their books nominated for the Foreward’s Book of the Year Award in Poetry! Nice!

Hi Jeannine,
Just a quick note to tell that your poem is amazing.I love the lines that define what is held together/apart. Poignant imagery.
Hope you doing well and in good health now.
