... to say I really love your poem, Heather! maybe one day I will share my "narrative setting a mood" essay I had to write for English COmp II last year, I was so self concious about it (wrote about something real- my experience moving out), but the proff gave me an A (no one else got one) and wrote TONS of positive comments, and he is not the type to suck up to someone, so I guess it was pretty good! I have never shared it, I will have to dig it up. Lets just say I am now proud of my work! i have always had a knack for writing, but no real insane talent, and no serious interest or drive. Hope to see something of yours in print again!
