Bob, who was this month's leader, read the next chapter of his children's book, a charming tale about a whale and an ant. Can you see Beatriz in the photo to Bob's left? Originally from Argentina, she's a retired biologist who shared work about the hummingbird moth, which masquerades as a hummingbird, down to the buzz it makes with its wings. Here's her blog.Newcomer Carly Brown is on Bob's left. She had to hand-write her poem cuz her computer knew she wanted to make a good impression at her debut yesterday so it froze up. I B Singer used to talk about demons who attacked his writing. He won the Nobel about shtetls in Eastern Europe. Nice to outwit your demons.
Mary is making notes with her portable Braille writer. Her exquisite poem on a trip to the beach with her dad and brother took place when she was very young and could see. She has no vision today and couldn't see when I flashed the photo her way.
Donna read a stunning poem about her bipolar disorder. She's collecting her work into a book. She wore gorgeous silver nails which I asked her to display.
