Hi, Sam - I hope you are doing well. How are your classes? Are you getting some good writing time in? I am working on the first proof of my COLLECTED POEMS which my publisher wanted to do last fall but we are just now getting to it. I always imagined that when one gets to the "collected" stage of life it (life) was over or close to it. I have several unpublished manuscripts circulating or sitting on the floor of my study. I am enjoying VIRTUAL teaching at Walailak University in Thailand. Happy Saturday and take good care of yourself. Michael Poage
