JMO, I dunno. Too scared to look, ha ha.
All that matters to me is whether I get an email from a publisher. It hasn'happened yet and I don't expect it to happen!! I'm gonna approach some American publishers, having tried a few UK ones, and then if no dice I'll self-publish.

Or maybe Democrats pressure. Or Democrat pressure.
Pressure from the Democrats? Take your pick.

Many thanks, Damon!
Yes, things at last seem to be moving that way, presumably because of Democratic pressure.

Antonionioni, this is a wonderfully written text.

Antonionioni, this is a wonderfully written text.  I am so sorry that the event ever happened.  I didn't know anything about the attack until late that afternoon, as I didn't have the TV or radio on.  I will be glad when this war is over, and our troops can come home.

Damon

I shopped at Sainsbury's (like Safeway/Giant/Kroger) & its special still

That was in 1990-91 when I lived in South London and used the tube to Blackfriars and then combo commuter trains to Kew Gardens, and then stayed in Reading ---for visits to the archives for my dissertation. Loved Kew Gardens and the swans (Flowers too, of course)

I remember my exact location when I heard the news. I was a quail guide in burke county georgia. I had went to the hardwear store to get some supplies for the plantation where I worked at the time and the hardwear man there told me of the news. I went back to my truck and wept like a child.

This sad day changed all of our lives, all over the world. A great sonnet Antonio.

Superb 9/11, Tony

Assassin’s sudden stab, retreat, ember

Of history’s end and heedless profit.
