Wonderful, Ms Letty! I hope you enjoy my humble offering and post a review here sooooooon! :-)
Kelly, I did a strange thing. I started at the end of your book and read backwards. I often do that. Let me say this, soldier. I'm liking what I see, but I promise you one thing. I will NOT do you the disservice of comparing you to Flaubert, Joyce, or Pound. You are YOU and and totally different. Let F, J, and P get their own stuff.
Ms. Letty, it was the editor who did the cover work in the editorial review. I certainly do not pretend or maintain any semblance of an allusion that the great modernist poets with whom they compared me in any way reflects the quality my literature. They are the Greats. I am but a humble aspirant :-) As always, I thank you for your kindness. You, Cav, Lex, Seed, truemale, edgarblythe, tagged_lyricist, amateur, joe, and the mighty pessimist, just to name a few, inspire and humble me as a poet. You all are truly the greats and I am honored to have my poetry reside amongst yours :-) This is the greatest of forums!
Kelly, honey. I knew it was the editor's blurb, I just wish that he hadn't lumped you in with those relative unknowns. <smile>
Seriously, the reason that I made that remark, is because you have created a whole new genre in your own right.
