I'm so proud of her! I've loved her stuff from the first moment I curled up with Night Student! She amazes me ... a painter of words! I adore her!
ReplyDeleteLynn, we all know Nancy as a teacher because she has meant so much to so many, but we don't forget what a fine poet she is.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to her next poetry collection and hope it will be out before long.
