Saying Something

Today I gave a reading for the first time in almost four years. I was given these poems and I needed to share them and get out of the way of them. Geoff said that my voice sounded stronger than ever and I feel as though my husband and my babies have fortified me. Helen gave me this advice: "Don't apologize for anything. Insecurity makes the audience feel uneasy. Expect it to be great. The audience will meet you if you step forward." Amazing how versatile this advice is.
