And So On...

Happy Birthday,
Kurt Vonnegut!

He's my Writing Idol!  It was a thrill to meet him in Boston back in 1995 at a Writer's  Festival.  Kurt did a speech on opening night.  I met him afterwards at the reception in the back of the Arlington Street Church.  I got to shake his hand and tell him how much I loved his books.

I even sat in the next day and watch him critique and lecture us about writing stories.  I didn't have anything to submit, but I enjoyed the experience.  He was very funny.

Now, I'm a writer who's having fun doing this.

Btw, Happy Veteran's Day!
