Even More Forward. . .

What I do on a daily basis (besides my LTM/IRI work) is read and write. There have been times in the past when I have thought that my BA in English might have been a waste or a wrong fit. Now I realize that it was all a part of my nature and that I love writing and reading very much. So, this brings me to my future plans even more. I think that I might try to get into grad school for something relating to English. Okay, so why does this involve any of you, my faithful readers? Well, I have left an oversight in my collections of books that I have here in Zambia. I have no books of poetry. If any of you feel so motivated, I would love to get some chapbooks of poetry. They are usually realtively light-weight :) I just realized that it is a major part of what I love to read and what inspires me. I miss good poetry. Okay, I go the way of friends now... everyone is in town for our provincial meeting!

Many people are interested in the Zambian judicial system or lack of. Could you tell us a few of the laws. What the punishment for breaking them is. Be good and take care of yourself!

I'll find a book of Barnstone poetry and send it your way--btw, Aliki had a poem featured as a poem of the week on the Slate website! I hope you got my last package (the one with all the red crosses!), and another one will be on the way soon...
