me. The swirls of the consonants I had written appeared to have pulled the adjoining vowels flat. Instead of the medical directions I intended, there was drawn only a knotted string. Though the nurse had only questioned the legibility of my writing, the tone of her voice challenged even the content of what was written. When I first sat to write Cry WaterColors my intent was to entertain a personal creative impulse. It did not matter if a knotted string was all that I created. When the imagined characters I wrote began to share their passions, I cared that anyone reading would feel as I did. It became important that every word interact with each other, in content as much as in rhythm. When completed, I stowed the loose pages of the book in a shoe-box and hid it inside the closet. A few years later I recalled the nurse’s challenge and realized that Cry WaterColors was more than a knotted string; its content has value beyond a personal impulse. At the NYC Book Expo I intent to share its value with those who care to stop by my booth (#1846). Reviews: “…Cry Watercolors is poetic, lyrical and extremely moving.
