"OUTSIDE THE CROWD"
I am happy to announce the publication of the sequel to "GRAVEL DUST AND DREAMS," a second chapbook, this one titled, "OUTSIDE THE CROWD." The first book, a book of narrative poems from my birth to age 11, is continued in the new book. Here, the farm boy moves to Indianapolis, a life changing jolt. It continues through marriage. Together, these two books of childhood and coming-of-age, comprise 59 poems. They should be read together.
Either book is available by mail, $10.00 each plus postage. Email your order to jaharco2004@yahoo.com
Thanks,
Jim
This blog reflects my decades long love affair with clocks and writing.
