Updates:

Not too much to report, we have moved to Spokane, Washington and I have been writing like a crazy lady! I am currently working on several different projects, which keeps me very busy. As if my 2 year old isn't enough...lol! My wish is that I will have completed book one of my romantic mini-series, Clover Crossings. It is just about done, just needs some fine tuning. I had been suffereing from the worse writers block ever, but that spell seems to have lifted, hopefully long enough for me to get some serious writing done!

The Dung Beetle will be publishing it's monthly goodies online only for the time being. There is a chance it will be printed for the public, but until then you can enjoy that wacky zine at www.freewebs.com/thedungbeetle or just follow the link listed in my nav bar.

In other news Tim (the hubby) has moved to another radio station located in Spokane, Washington, and good news folks, you can now listen to Tim on the internet! So tune in to KYRS 92.3FM or go to thinairradio.org every Thursday night from 6-8 for some awesome tunes and some wacky fun. Turn IT Up With Tim!!! You can also follow a link through my nav bar to his site as well or go to www.freewebs.com/turnituptim

 

          Poetry Page:

Here is where you can find some work from my favorite poets. Please feel free to submit any requests from your favorite poets and authors, and I'll be more than happy to post it on this page. Enjoy!

Robert Frost (1874-1963)
Fire and Ice
Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To Know that for destruction of ice
Is also great
And would suffice.

William Butler Yeats (1865-1939)
The Fish
Although you hide in the ebb and flow
Of the pale tide when the moon has set,
The people of coming days will know
About the casting out of my net,
And you have leaped times out of mind
Over the little silver cords,
And think that you were hard and unkind,
And blame you with many bitter words.

Randall Jarrell (1914-1965)
Death of the Ball Turret Gunner
From my mother's sleep I fell into this State,
And I hunched in its belly till my wet fur froze.
Six miles from earth, loosed from its dream of life,
I woke to black flak and the nightmare fighters.
When I died they washed me out of the turret with a hose.
