Dear Editors:
Thanks so much for seeing merit in my “Seniorhood” piece for the May issue of WestView. It is beautifully laid out, giving it the feel of a true prose poem. I happen to have a large number of ‘oldster’ friends and most identified with the writing; they got a sort of serious chuckle out of it.
Getting published in my local paper is a huge ego boost for me and I will continue to submit oldies but goodies as well as new inspirations.
I can’t figure out if my fellow poet and writer friends are jealous that they can’t get published in WestView or if they just have publication envy. Who cares? I feel blessed to live in the West Village AND to be a contributor to your enviable
enterprise.
Please don’t stop doing what you’re doing.
