Thank You!

…to Deni and Sandy and Deni’s sister Vicki, for the donation of books — 96 new copies of five different titles, including the hilarious Robert’s Rules of Lesbian Living. They are for sale at Herland, and will be at the Spring Retreat at Roman Nose.

…to Carol Koss, for her creative, fun, inspiring, informative poetry workshop. More than a few of us are carrying around notebooks now to jot down poetry ideas. It was a wonderful afternoon and evening.

…to Connie Seabourn and Katthy Buttry for teaching us how to make beautiful books. Connie’s creativity makes a person’s head swim, and the first class was a frenzied delight. There are five more classes (see the Events Calendar) and it is not necessary to take all six — though if you come for one, the odds are you’ll be freeing up your time to take more!
