Some news
Well, there's no prompt at the moment, but I've got some confessions and some news.

Currently, I am in the "I Write in December, January, February. . ." contest which requires that I enter at least one writing contest every week for the winter. The story that I wanted to enter last week was not quite ready in time, so I had the sneaky idea of entering a poetry contest just to earn my little train car for the week. I hardly ever write poetry, but I hacked out this poem
 Cricket on the Shoulder Open in new Window. (E)
A THIRD PLACE WINNER IN A POETRY CONTEST! Why I chose this topic, I'm not sure. . .
