Write poetry, digital draw and paint, and sculpt clay. The poetry is often micropoems like haiku, tanka, haibun, or cherita. The digital paintings come after 40 years of being in meetings with a sketchbook. The clay sculptures are usually Raku fired.

Sometimes folks want poems. Poetry On Demand, we have typewriters, they give a topic, we write a poem just for them. Donation for the Mac Library & AAYC programs. 4 to 7 Saturday 9/20/25 Celestial Hills Tasting Room. As you know, words have value.

Hi Michael. I'm Mike Santone. I am on the AAYC Ed Committee. Maggie Bowman, chair, said she was told you are on the Ed Committee. Welcome aboard. I am a writer and for me that beautiful blank page is an opportunity for discovery and surprise, both of myself & the world. I hope we can meet.

Hi Derek. I like that I can control what I see here. At the moment I am focused on Poetry at BlueSky. This world is getting more and more worrisome. Ignoring the upheaval is not an option.

Beautiful. The echo of the sea. Iron's gentle caress of fractured stone. Thank you.
