Julie R. Neidlinger: Lone Prairie Art and Writing

Remember me? Of course I do.

Granted, maybe you like poems about toilet paper, grouse, and soap dispensers. I can certainly handle those topics.

On the off chance, though, that you're not interested in reading poems that contain phrases like "bifurcated garment" -- you're in luck.

I'm taking this opportunity to send you to Meg's blog, a young woman who, pre-college, was in the writers' group I am in. She sent me one of those "do you remember me?" kind of emails I even still get once in while from students I taught back in my art teacher days, filling me in on some of the great travel, education and writing opportunities she's gotten to take part in. She has poetry and travelogues and photos on her blog.

None of which, as far as I can tell, talk about getting a bloody nose in the winter, which was my topic du jour just a short while back.

I always appreciate such emails from students or young people I've had the opportunity to get to know, as long as they don't say anything like "hey, remember me you horrible art teacher who ruined me on art for the rest of my life? I was the one who keyed your car."

Stuff like that? Not so swell.

Anyway, check out her blog and stop back to see what she's writing. We can all use readers, we writers.
