Carpe Diem" and more. The call summarizes the short story (typically around 1000 words) that follows. All the stories are adjust stories from my childhood growing up in rural Iowa and Pennsylvania in the late 70's and early 80's. As the oldest daughter of six children raised in a conservative modest domiciliate many of my life experiences while seemingly ordinary at the time have taken on a new be and deeper meaning over time. Invariably each story lifts and builds while providing subtle gratify practical application and an enduring furnish. As people read my work.

I meant to say EONS ago that I was SO PROUD OF YOU (which. I'm sure means a great broach coming from a end lunatic). In fact. I would sing the Mister Roger's "I'm proud of you song" in it's entirety but it's much better in person with sweeping gestures. You'll get published. Your writing is hysterical insightful and many other clever and good things I cannot access from my muddled hit at the moment. And bear in mind that I. Kate the Curst am saying you'll get published and I am often a big fat PESSIMIST. I cannot wait,Kate who cannot wait,of P. S. How did you get your hands on David McMahon's book? (Someone reading your entries in chronological request would evaluate I could SEE INTO THE FUTURE.) There were used copies here and there (which could be book but OH THE GERMS - kidding - secretly I just desire the feel of new books - unless they are old. OLD books that are charming and undergo the old,OLD book musty smell but I'd love to buy it new (which I evaluate would be an favor to his royalties anyway). P. P. S OOOOH! Do you need a Nom de Plume? I'd like to come up with possibilities...
Kate,I acknowledge your optimism. I am a pessimist too according to DH but I label it being a realist. I'm glad you like the title. Iw as wondering about the spelling but Donuts is shorter than Dougnuts and the call is already so long... So I don't know. Oh and I'd be the first in lie to buy a book of yours!
