Oh! The New Superhero Stamps from the Post Office feature Wonder Woman doing something I quote in my poem, “Wonder Woman Dreams of the Amazon.”
“…Inexplicably, snow-feathered doves appear in my hands…”
Check it. I write it, and it becomes a stamp. What does this mean?
Incidentally, the scene where she produces doves is in a comic-book fight with Mars, the God of War.

I must buy some of those stamps for submissions!
Hey, do you know what the deal is with Kelli Russell Agodon’s blog? Her blog appears to be missing.

I bought those stamps and thought of you. Also saw a Wonder Woman purse on eBay. You were smart to claim that image as your own!

Thanks Peter!
Gerald – Yes, she took down her blog. Hopefully she’ll put it back up someday – I miss her blog already!
Thanks Leslie! I think it is coincidence that I started writing about Wonder Woman just before she began experiencing a resurgence – movie, stamp, etc. Must have been in the zeigeist or something.

Re: Kelli Russell Agodon’s blog
I remember reading a couple of posts on her blog where she intimated that she might blog less but I didn’t expect her to pull the plug completely. Miss her blog too!
Great stamps by the way! I must order some myself for my (American)SASE’s.
Amanda Auchter
Yeah, I thought of you when I saw those!

Got my stamps the other day. Don’t think I’ll use them.
