    She's one of my favorites.
    This was great.
    Her poetry is so good.
    I loved the book.
    Thanks for posting this John.
    Again...Super edit.
    Love the single posted poems as it gives the viewer time to think about what he or she just watched...
    Just loved it.

      Thank you, Ken!  That means a lot to me.

      The historian in me wants to post each entire reading, while the artist, connoisseur and promoter in me prefers the smaller one or two poem bites.  I've got tons of good Cleveland area poetry on video, but have gotten terribly behind in editing and posting.  I'm determined to make catching up a priority.

    Well.. second times a charm.... lost the comment I thought I'd just posted. If it shows up just delete this..

    Just wanted to say I like the single poem format on the videos as well. I have time to watch a 2-10 minute video but not necessarily an hour or longer one. I'd have to come back and watch it in parts anyway.
    It also allows you to focus on one reader and what they've offered.. I like that better at least in a video format. So hope to see more of these. I think it also seems to be easier for you to process them and post them faster this way... just seems that way.

    Anyway, thanks.

    I love TMs work.. her delivery and presentation seems to also be getting better and better.. you can see it in the difference even from 9 months ago.. very nice.

      Thanks, Chris!  Another factor in my recent decision to focus more on shorter videos is Google Video's recent decision to discontinue uploading.  I liked Google because they lacked the 10 minute time limits of You Tube and MySpaceTV.  Oh well... it's better this way for a number of other reasons.

      I appreciate your feedback!
