“…and I also need some evocative imagery, a gripping rhyme scheme, astonishing and awesome alliteration, help with my first and last verses, an agent with excellent connections in the publishing world, and…and…a home office with a door. Am I asking for too much?”

I'm sure the big fat guy can swing it for you. It's sort of payback for being good.

I like the way you think...never hurts to ask. Thanks for your well wishes regarding my cataract surgery yesterday. It was the 2d and final one...and I can see fabulously well...worth it. Hope you continue to heal in the days ahead, hugs, Sara

Sara, if you don’t ask you don’t get. I hope Santa obliges, wait and see what’s left beneath the Christmas tree… Belle
