Hi, Rose.

So nice to hear from you. I haven't been on here in quite awhile but your comment got me back! So thanks for that. And, yes, TO HELL WITH SLEEP was wonderful--as is pretty much everything by Anselm Berrigan.

Take care, ma'am--
D.

Hi, Jeannie.

Nah, just my same old name. (Oh, how I loathed it as a kid!) But I'm quite fond of it.

Best,
Donna


Jeannie Faulkner Barber Hi Donna, I love your name...sounds like a character in a book. *smile* Thanks for adding me as a friend.
