The latest edition of Fine Lines is out and available by following this link.
Below is a small sample of the quality writing that is just a few clicks away. The poem by Duane Anderson is at the very front of the edition. It’s titled “Heaven Isn’t Found in Iowa.” Anderson is retired from Union Pacific Railroad and lives in LaVista.
Summer may be officially over, but baseball is still being played. The offering below is from writer Lea Bushey, a first-time contributor. It’s in the current edition of Fine Lines. Please enjoy.
Jim Salhany is a writer and editor for Fine Lines and also a songwriter and musician. He wrote the son “Write On” with Fine Lines in mind. He sent this along as well —
“The lyrics for the song ‘Write On’ are motivational, in that they offer a bit of a cheer for writing. The attached song ‘Poetry & Song’ is one I wrote and produced for the Samba Caribe CD several years ago . . . . I recently had the occasion to listen to it again, and was struck as to how it might compliment the “Write On” song. The theme in ‘Poetry & Song’ focuses on the Shakespeare’s idea of immortality in verse, here the words in poetry and song. This song offers a purpose and a focus to write on. If you think this will work on the FL Website with “Write On,” you may have this track with my compliments, and add it to the site.”
With that in mind, enjoy “Poetry & Song.”
Please take the time to view this. It captures just how important (and fun) camp is.
Please give it a second to load up, click, and enjoy.
Creativity takes practice and time. Ira Glass, the host of the radio show This American Life, has some wise thoughts on the subject. Check it out and enjoy. (And the words and sentences flying around in the video are just a bonus.)
