Bill, I appreciate you visiting my site continuously and your comments are always valued. Thanks, all the best – OM
You lived in more places than I’ve been!
I’ve actually slowed down a bit, but since I’ve been in Germany these past 7 years, I’ve lived in two different towns.
Everything ok Bill?
Life is full of twists and turns, as you well know. I am fine, except that I am currently working for free because I am considered “critical” at my Gov job but no money to pay me. I am just busy with other projects and had to step away from this one for a while. I’ll be back. You have been busy with yours!
Indeed I have. Good to hear you are ok, just checking in! 🙂
Update on the Poetry Group: I am going to have to put this off till next week. I began my new work schedule and I am tired. We have the list and if either of the two that submitted ideas as to how to set up this group would like instead to “take over” I am all for that. Just email me or comment here and I actually hope someone takes me up on this offer. I wanted to be a “participant” not the leader on this. But I will help construct the format of the group and provide the “platform” obviously for the setup and if no one volunteers I will group people next week and simply set a date to have your poem posted, maybe a label and tag we will all use, and a date to try and have reviews done (a week shouldn’t be hard). I will wait and see what kind of responses I get here.
I am going to tag this post with PCG1 for now.
