Changes

The astute visitor to this blog may notice  a couple of changes.  We (because I’m computer challenged and when I say we I mean  my wife, Helena) ditched that boring, stock photo of books from create space that used to be over the blog and replaced it with that  handsome animal to the left, perusing my latest book, “155 Sonnets.”  His name is Bonzo, and he lives with Max and Max’s mom, Becky, in Oklahoma City.

Also, the  bar across the  top has  been simplified.  I moved the Tarot Poems in with the  rest of the poems, so now there are just two choices up there, i.e. Home, which is this daily blog, and Poetry, which is everything else.  Then, we moved the  Sonnets book in there, as well as Rheets 2013, which is 365 very short  poems (140 characters or less) about the  relevant  topics of our times.

The  idea is that, as much as I would love people to buy my books, it’s even more  important  to me that people read my books.  I realize that a lot of you are starving artist types, or just people  who prefer to read whatever is free, because there is so much of it out there, or people who don’t know me from a bar of soap and have no particular reason to believe that the writing is any good.  Here is your chance.  You  can  just click on Poetry, read the book, or as much of it as you like,  and then you’ll know if it’s worth owning or not.  (Also, do not forget, books of poetry make nice gifts.)
