I'm a poet / essayist / memoirist/
journalist (in the sense of keeping a journal, not of working for a newspaper) and it occurred to me that a blog fits in with all that. If Montaigne, father of the essay, were alive today, he'd keep a blog. This is my self-portrait as frustrated artist who can't believe she's not famous yet.

All Hail Jim!

Those of you who have visited my blog before will notice some changes: It's no longer utilitarian and spare, but spiffed-up and fancy! Check out the picture in the upper right corner--that's one of my favorite photos of me. Check out the Chinese character in the upper left corner--that's my surname and my tattoo! Check out the soothing green palate and the larger, easier-to-read font!

I owe all of this to my friend Jim, who generously offered to host my blog and custom-design the template.

I couldn't be happier with the results, or more grateful for his work.

Feel free to leave enthusiastic comments praising the beauty of my blog--but remember, Jim is the genius behind it all.

Thanks, Jim!

Nice job, Jim!

You have framed Our Lady of the Holly in a most pleasing aesthetic. Now, her posts go down like a green tea latte on cool winter night.

Bravo!

On my Mac at work, I couldn't see the new elements at the top in Explorer; it was just blank up there. But they show up nicely in Safari. You're lucky to break free of the blog template ghetto . . .
