I just rec'd an email this morning from my publisher, One of the Canadian Newspapers in Nfld ran a two page exerpt from my latest book In Deep Water. I think of all the things I have accomplished in my short carreer as a writer this on filled me with the most pride...


Poem Artwork

I Think I’ve Made It


 


Wow it’s out there,


I think I’ve done it


Is my turn really here?


A two page spread in a newspaper


My words taken from my book


Excerpt from “In Deep Water”


All want to take a look


 


First book thrilled me


Second one stilled me


This one is my star


Pride is allowed


I worked to come so far


 


Poor boy on the wrong side


Drop out lost pride


Sailor on the seas


Hungry if you please


Found my calling late


Somehow changed my fate


 


Who is laughing now


Noses once looked down


Upon this lonely man


I’m sure now wear a frown


My name on the spine


My story, all mine.

Congradulations! I started late to and can only hope MAYBE to experience just a taste of what you have accomplished. And I know how hard it is. I have been published only on the internet and one anthology. Sometims it's so overwhelming. Can't get agents to even read you much less publishers. So I stand here a fellow writer and applaud you my friend! You deserve EVERYTHING you are about to recieve! I am Very proud to know you!!!! \/vvv\/ <---- Rottie Smile (you get TWO of them!)

Deepest C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S Dear F E L I X !!!!
So proud of you!! I love the name of your book: 'Deep Water'!
I grew up in a place called 'Woy Woy' ... It means 'Deep Water' in aboriginal. They repeat the name twice to give emphasis that it's deep water! We have a Deep Water Plaza there!
May 'Deep Water' be one of your many stars!! Shine On!!!
Love, Suzie :-D

Stick out that handsome chest and wear pride with the best smile you have, the most awesome michievious grin you can gonger up and ride the wave as it swells. I'm here to say that this poem is humming nicely and YOU dear Fee are a ***STAR***.

I'd appreciate a link to the newspaper article when you come down...from riding that comet's tail...but stay there and catch that next rainbow to email me a link.
