"I liked very much your poem "Broken". It seemed to sum up how I feel most days.
Maybe I should print it out and then if someone asks me how I feel today I can just hand a copy to them."

“Hi Debbie, glad you enjoyed seeing your work in Reach Poetry. You'll be delighted to know others enjoyed it too! I know what it's like to life everyday with illness and creativity as dual companions. I take enough pills to rattle and need a machine to help breathing occasionally, but run Indigo Dreams Press with it’s magazines and anthologies, competitions and a self-publishing company - all poetry and prose. Keep your website alive and thriving, and if you keep is easy to navigate, then that will help me when I pop along to look! You write from the heart, which is the brightest and darkest place sometimes. It's also the one with the truth that we can all share. Good to be associated with you.”
