  1. David,
    Are you a mentor at Antioch this semester? I'm in the program, and live in Long Beach too. It would be cool to have a mentor so local.
    Thanks,
    Daniel

  2. hi david--
    i love the imagery of your work; it's always just right and adeptly illustrated.
    how long do you live with a poem before it's ready for the world?
