I WROTE THREE POEMS TODAY.

And guess what? They are for CHILDREN.

Why has this never occurred to me before?!

I think maybe I just needed the mix of Robyn Hood Black, the north Georgia countryside and Rebecca Kai Dotlich.

Awesome retreat. Thanks to all the wonderful organizers and attendees and gracious Rebecca. I'll be back with some tips and lessons learned, but wanted to get these pics to you straightaway:

-me and Rebecca-

-the whole posse of poets-

-not visibly writing, but yes, writing-
