My apologies for having been so silent on so many lists this year but I cant
get rid of my current depression. It is almost clinical.
What I must say is that I approved the dummy of this book this morning and
it will probably my last publication and the one that means most to me. So
as in a few weeks I will have my usual spare copies I was thinking that the
best thing to do with them would be to send them out to people that
requested my last book 'Finality'. I should say that Love Poems is much more
accesable. So I will just send out copies to the existing addresses, cos
that is the easiest for me, and if anybody has changed their address and
still wants the book please let me know of their change.
I am sorry but in many lists and chatgroups I have been silent this year cos
nothing has come into my mind to say. That is what depression is all about.
I might as well give the URL of the basic test....

I hope I snap out of this sometime but maybe all these years of drugs
(prescription) have taken their toll. Creativity went years ago. Cheers and
let me know b/c.
