I'm planning to highlight your website and books at a program I'll be doing for a PEO group in Blacksburg. This will be a short overview(20 minutes or so) of what I understand from looking at these and choosing excerpts. The group is a womens' Philanthropic Educational Organization dedicated to helping women achieve their educational goals. There are 3 chapters in the Blacksburg area. Please let me know if you would have anything special you'd wish me to mention at this house meeting on August 10, 2010 in Blacksburg. Best wishes and thanks for your work, Helen Renqvist(Newport, VA) Hi from Helen!

I'm Jim's, the Story Teller's, brother in SC. A word of thanks to you for your many kindnesses to him, initially offering him a place to shoot, but more recently and dramatically, inspiring him to write like he talks. Like many who have a gift, he seemed "born to blush unseen", without opportunity or encouragement to cast his seed upon the waters. You show up, and the rest is unfolding history. We're getting a real charge out of this in SC. For all you've done, much gratitude from the lowcountry. See you later, on the porch. Hi, Fred.
