Touching Blue Again

The updated version of my self-published poetry anthology "Touching Blue" is finally up for sale! It's been a long time coming and for those of you who have read the first one, I have made some significant changes; added a lot, took out what I considered some of the weaker pieces and also removed the illustrations to make way for more pieces.

I must admit that I am very pleased with the final result and thanks must go to fellow gatherer and my friend, Maria B (blackleopard.gather.com) for editing the manuscript for me.

Entitled "Touching Blue Again", the anthology is available from lulu.com.

I saw T.K's review, and I'm in the process of purchasing it as well!

Yaaaaaahooooo!

I just need to run and get my credit card!
~Lady Neeetah of California~Obama #44 W. Sep 12, 2008, 1:20am EDT
Well, Alison,
I did not do a review, but I did do a search for "Expressions", and I located it, and I purchased it as well, since "lulu" made me join them. lol.

So then, I should get my shipment in 3-5 business days, huh? Cool!
Nice doing business with them, and I look forward to kicking back, and reading YOU.

Since I must do a review for Gather and Coffee Mate, maybe I'll "review" YOU!!!
~Lady Neeetah of California~Obama #44 W. Sep 12, 2008, 1:23am EDT
. . . and my REVIEW shall be HARD on you, Girlfriend!

I shall execute my duty with great diligence, and sobriety! Be forewarned, so I hope at least one of these books is good!

Are you up to the task?

Are you willing to . . . take me on?
Lavonne W. Sep 19, 2008, 9:28pm EDT
Congratulations! I hope you do well.
~Lady Neeetah of California~Obama #44 W. Sep 26, 2008, 6:04pm EDT
I relent. Now that I have the book, I am enjoying the stories. More later, once I finish it all, but I shall say that YOU are so talented!
Curt L. Oct 19, 2008, 6:43pm EDT
I forgot to offer you my congratulations, too, Alison!
