Linda, this in an interesting take on artists who became famous. So, I am wondering how odd we may be even though we are relatively unknown. It's neither here nor there. I am very happy to operate largely under the radar.

Hi Duke. Thanks for reading and commenting. I believe we are all unique (= odd). Some more so than others and you are correct. It's neither here nor there. Under the radar is good. :)

Congrats on your winning work. Some poets were strange and did some unusual things as well. Sara

Their lives were often quite strange. Why artists seem to gravitate toward such lives is beyond me. (Shows you who's not an artist here, I guess! lol). Well done, Linda. :) gw

I think the artists of today still have a bit of the drama about them, even poets ;) Thank you my friend. laf

There art is our attraction, drawing attention to their sad lives.

Yes, interesting lives. Sad they received little monetary recognition until after their deaths. Thanks for the read Kim! Linda
