Evening All,

Here we are again- somewhere between waning Summer sunsets and the lingering, crisp kiss of Fall.  Welcome to my new makeshift office; the book updates are…

REWRITES, CONVERSATIONS & POEMS ABOUT BOYS
While our editor is annotating away (we’re deliberating some serious cuts as well as new rewrites), I’ve continued work on IPoM‘s follow up (CONVERSATIONS: In Praise of Men) as well as the above pictured collection of prose, Poems About Boys.  If you donated $5 or more to our Indiegogo to co-publish IPoM, look for a free PDF copy in your box in early 2020.  I thank you again for your patience and support, and look forward to making you smile in person soon.       

MEKYIA
Next- wherever you’re reading this right now- I’d like to share a moment of silence with you to salute #24 on our 50 Magnificent Men index.  As someone who grew up in Africa, it was inspiring to see Kofi Annan– a neighbor from Ghana- help lead the U.N.  He truly helped change our world and it is my belief that if you work smart, hard and persevere, you will too.

Finally, don’t forget: we’re active each week on Twitter: www.twitter.com/brookercalder!

With BIG LOVE from the MidWest-
Your faithful author,
Brooke
