As always Sherry has outdone herself with her wonderful technique for getting the best out of the poets she interviews, but you were a pretty spectacular subject. I've loved your work as long as I've been reading it, and I think that's been since the first PAD if I remember correctly ... Now I have an inkling as to why you write such wonderful stuff - your love of life shines through every poem you pen. It was great to get a glimpse of the behind-the-scenes Sara - your family, your sense of place - the ocean(s), your other interests, and especially your love of laughter! I look forward to enjoying your work for many years to come. Thanks for sharing a slice of your life with us.S.E.Ingrahamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02135141369161538082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4139625267522039683.post-49617485531006989512012-10-29T16:17:00.298-04:002012-10-29T16:17:00.298-04:00Thank you Ina!!

Fantastic. <br /><br />Sara, I knew I loved you, but holy COW do we ever have a lot in common, my friend. Shutterbug hubbies, our love for the sea (your photos and descriptions make my heart ache...I am desert-bound most of the year)...I could go on. I can't thank you enough for sharing of yourself, here. I desperately want even more, now, to sit down and have coffee and words with you. And thank you for the generous shout-out. Your work speaks for itself, and if I had any tiny thing to do with you getting it out there into the world, I'm truly, truly honored. <br /><br />Keep on dancing, my talented friend.
