Hey guys! Sorry I haven’t been posting much – been struggling through some health setbacks (including some secondary infections from the pneumonia and a sprained ankle I acquired on July 4 – bad luck lately, I guess, or I was really naughty in a past life) and have generally been a little slower with work and so with blogging, too. I apologize.
I am glad to have distractions. I starting re-reading Possession by AS Byatt, I’ve got some more classwork to do, and I probably should start sending some poems out again since I have only a couple of subs out there right now. I’m really behind on my reviewing too. I need to get organized and motivated! I’m not normally all that organized, actually, but I am usually pretty motivated – but not lately -I’ve just been too worn out. I’ve been diving into one-hundred-and-one ways to boost immune system function – from a no-sugar diet to probiotics and elderberry to bromelain and cherry juice. Bring on the miracle cures 🙂
The hummingbirds are chirping and diving around my windows, the sunshine is streaming through. I’ve got a reading next week with Tim Green from Rattle, so I better put a poetry “set” together. These days, I’m never sure whether I should read from the book or read new stuff. I’m hoping to get a nibble on a book manuscript soon…that would certainly cheer me up!
