            I haven't been on this site long, but many of you have already made me feel
welcome, and, moreover, like I belong.  I'm finding myself as inspired as I have ever been
to keep writing, and to keep growing as a writer, thanks to your support, your contests,
and your own original posts.  This is, truly, a special community.  
            Thanks for allowing me to become a part of it.

Kabuteng P.Ink K. September 7, 2010 at 12:46 AM Hi John! What a cool set of acrostics, such a wonderful tribute to the Soup and I can't help but relate ;) Can't help but like your 4th & 5th acrostic the best-- "yesterday stopped Usurping the Present" was so clever! Haha take it from a Soup addict like me ;) I truly feel blessed that I am part of this awesome community-- thanks for sharing this and I look forward to reading more of your works :) Enjoy your Soup & your day ^_^ -- nikko :)
