667059 Hi Ken: Thanks for inviting me to your friends list. And thanks for the nice comment about my book's nomination, both on my page and the small-press group. That was kind of you. I enjoyed your video and hearing about the Blacksmiths---you guys don't look old enough to have a 30-year-reunion tour. Man, Freebird Books looks like a great store! Your reading was great, too---nice commentary on Irishness. Congrats on The Love Book!
