I read John Hersey's "Hiroshima' when I was a little younger than you are now and it left a deep impression... I think your Haiku is wonderful and can't imagine it being rejected by the magazine. <br />Sherry, fabulous job with the interview. I am so glad to see a real person behind the Enigma.

We certainly know much more about you now. <br />I too studied English many moons ago and became an English teacher, not a professor though. As an avid reader, especially at the time, I enjoyed studying the English literature and language. We also studied civilization. Thank you also for the glorious pictures. I love cooking and eating and your cake looks fabulous.<br />Sherry, as always, you did a great job!Gabriellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09968615376035959259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139625267522039683.post-59335846095615074142014-10-27T21:56:50.905-04:002014-10-27T21:56:50.905-04:00Ha ha, Mary, I love that "Enigma" is les...Ha ha, Mary, I love that "Enigma" is less of an enigma now. I so enjoyed doing this interview. Preeti, I was amazed to find just how pink the pink city actually is - what a glorious shade it is when the sun hits it at just the right time. In Tofino, four o'clock was the magic hour, when the mountains blushed a deep rose pink....so beautiful.Sherry Blue Skyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10769154286598233146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139625267522039683.post-40302613771015714702014-10-27T14:23:58.009-04:002014-10-27T14:23:58.009-04:00I really enjoyed this interview, Sherry.

You share your hopes and goals for your life well & have an honesty about your work that I like. I enjoyed reading that your father's love of books had such a strong influence on you. And I agree -- "Hiroshima" is an excellent haiku.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07366010389846904663noreply@blogger.com
