It's not often that one sees a joint recommendation from
Scheherazade,
Denise Howell, and
Ernie. While I'd seen many references to his old blog, David Giacalone was on hiatus when I started blogging. He's back, though, and I can see why he has the following he does. Check out his blog on ethics and haiku at
ethicalEsq & haikuEsq.
Maybe I'm biased because it's haiku. The one and only poetry award I ever won was for a haiku I wrote when I was seven. Since then, my poetry career has gone downhill. Thank goodness for law school.

Wow. You won an award fo a haiku poem at 7?! Wow again. Very intuitive, too.
It's not hard to win an award when one's competition is other seven-year-olds in rural Southern California, many of whom didn't have access to the books that I did.
It doesn't mean I don't treasure it, though!
