Freaky Friday



Time again for the ‘numbers game’, a challenge by Judy Dykstra-Brown. Here are my photos for her Numbers Game #27 for June 24th. The way it works is to query the photos in your ‘stash’ for a particular number. The number chosen for her June 24th challenge is 148.

In June of 2021, my poem, Outer Space, was originally published by Phantom Kangaroo. It was recently accepted, as a reprint, by Bulb Culture Collective, an “online literary space for previously published creative work”. This morning, I discovered it is now available on their website.
Here’s the link to their publication of Outer Space. It’s one of my favorite pieces and I hope you enjoy it!
My poem meritorious appears in today’s publication of Oddball Magazine, a “a socially conscious publication containing articles and illustrations“.
I continue to thank everyone for their enthusiastic support. Much appreciated!
