Basically, I will write about poetry, writing, etc.<br />
<br />
Putting together a book of poems titled <i>Red Canna</i> for Kindle experiment and am excited to get things moving. However, the template I used was really tedious.<br />
<br />
I was listening to Adele over and over for about six hours and the book is finished! There may not be a CD that complements the changes I have gone through more so!<br />
<br />
Now, I get to design the cover using the background image you see here. Nikki Reed Wilson designed and sketched the Red Canna woman and I always imagined this as the Red Canna logo for a women's press and my book cover.<br />
<br />
Rolling in the deep...<br />
