To ask for a map is to say, tell me
a story, and to ask for a story is
to say, take me somewhere.

An absolutely brilliant blog. Loved it.

we can ask him for a map.
or trade our map for his.
Oh how I am needing a map right now!!!
Hi Maureen,
I found you and your site through the High Calling network. You do have an interesting and varied blog!
I also bought your book. Lovely! (Though I bought it on Kindle - and don't think I'll buy another poetry book in that format...) You may be interested to know that your friend's YouTube trailer sold me - love that Neruda title poem and her reading of it.
I wrote a short response to your book on my writerly blog. It's here.
Violet,
My heart-felt thanks. I left a comment on your blog.
