Would you like to be a featured reader at a 9 p.m. reading at Visible Voice books? <BR/><BR/>Have you read Canadian poet Christian Bok? If not, I'll get him to you- etymological wordplay is the name of his game- it's excrutiatingly beautiful stuff-<BR/><BR/>GinnyVirginia Konchanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02443061431040276314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1721928287251297341.post-40357687337609894812008-02-10T23:29:00.000-05:002008-02-10T23:29:00.000-05:00My brilliant Amy!My brilliant Amy!Jennifer Sullivanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07407820860887051468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1721928287251297341.post-10944161238674829352008-02-10T12:12:00.000-05:002008-02-10T12:12:00.000-05:00Actually, Dork, it was "false etymological wordpla...Actually, Dork, it was "false etymological wordplay," which I subconsciously left out. Life is so odd, just writing down what you see, hear, and do creates a string of absurdities (and I live a pretty quiet life).

EVERYTHING sentence ever written started out as wordplay. It's the way language evolves(d). <BR/><BR/>So you are starting fresh- pushing yourself and not settling for the ordinary acceptable answer?<BR/><BR/>5 years from now the same critics may write "Innovative- courageous- extraordinary- never a dull word from Ms. Amy Sparks" <BR/><BR/>Sounds like you are onto something and giving the "intellectuals" something to write about.dorkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14302377719838189613noreply@blogger.com
