A memorial graveside service and homily for a close friend, followed by a homily I’ll deliver at a reception for an American/Turkish marriage, both in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania… then a visit with an author friend of 60 years’ duration in Potomac, Maryland…August will be a busy month as I’m headed East in two days. I won’t return until after August 15 and should find serendipity in unfamiliar places and people to blog about along the way.
Meanwhile, Border Press is reviewing the proof of a new book of my poetry slated for distribution this month. It’s called Destinations and includes train travel plus another everyday journal within the pages. The cover features an interesting shot Victoria Sullivan took of the ceiling or dome of the old, restored Chattanooga Choo Choo train terminal in Chattanooga, Tennessee. My grandson, Martin Romero, rendered the attractive design for this cover.
Train fans may want to take a ride through new and selected poems, ranging from those based in Bryson City, North Carolina to Tehran, Iran and other destinations enjoyed by a peripatetic poet.
Publication Date: Later this month. Destinations will be distributed by Amazon or can be ordered through Border Press, P.O. Box 3124, Sewanee, TN 37375.
