No biggy, we can wait- I feel pressure sometimes, because my creative process with working and all almost does not start fully till today through my weekend so I get a break!

  Hey, we all have our own ways of finding time to write! Most of mine is on the weekend as well or at night. I don’t often find ideas following me around on campus

    I tend to write on weekends too though once in awhile a weeknight creeps in and lets me write something and be awake enough to do it.
    
    Enter me in your drawing. I’d love to get your chapbook The Wait of Atom. Thanks.

Absolutely I would like to be in the drawing. And I will be happy with either book, should I be one of the lucky ones.
Jessie, I am thinking of joining in this year. How do you do the drawing when it comes time?

  I write all the names down and give everyone a number (usually in order of when they commented) then I use one of the online number generators. Then I do it again for the next book.

Been pondering the scheme…

I’d like to be put in the Atom Hat, Jessie!

I was trying to figure out how I can give away a favorite,
since the fave in question is in my reference works.
But Linda Benninghoff’s “Whose Cries Are Not Music” just came in,
and the contents include “Departures”, so that gem is freed up now.
Great, haunting stuff.
I’m going to if I can get put together a play in the event
with that and my “Nighthawks” book.

My chapbook collection consists of a whopping one title, which actually hasn’t arrived in the mail yet, so I’d be quite happy to win either book. There’s something particular nice about winning something from the author herself, however, so I’ll go with The Wait of Atom if I’m forced to choose.
