A Fresh Start, a new month equal to the promise of Spring to a neophyte blogger.
Jonny's wife introduced me to Rick Bragg. She sent me a Christmas ornament, and four of Bragg's books even a signed copy "the most they ever had". I will return it to her after I read it.
I started my blog stating that I am not a journalist - Rick Bragg is a journalist who then began to write memoirs and his poetic and lyrical voice is a fabulous read, if you like literature, and you love words and grew up reading words because you were lucky enough to be encouraged to read words, then go read his books.
Today is my day of reflection - I sure hope Bragg discovers my blog, he could really help the good people in Alabama if he wrote about Greg's experience through his perspective and understanding of how things got to be, maybe he could be the one left "to clear the sky". ( pg 259 "Ava's Man" Vintage Books 2001 A Division of Random House House, Inc.). Praise the Lord Jesus I hope I meet him!
