About Me
- Theresa Williams
- "I was no better than dust, yet you cannot replace me. . . Take the soft dust in your hand--does it stir: does it sing? Has it lips and a heart? Does it open its eyes to the sun? Does it run, does it dream, does it burn with a secret, or tremble In terror of death? Or ache with tremendous decisions?. . ." --Conrad Aiken

Trying to think up some good ones.
Let's talk about the keelboats, the river as road, the river as provider of livelihood, the river as connector as well as divider. What about the legend of Mike Fink? Cairo was a major Union port and drop off point in the Civil War. I think the ironclad gunboat 'Cairo' was built there. What can you find out about Cairo as a shipbuilding center in the Civil War era?
Enjoy the journey.

Ok. It has taken me a while but here goes. Rivers over a course of time may change their course. Where is the river headed? Where are you headed? What changes, professionally and personally, do you see happening in yourself? Is there a desire to seek changes? Does the river have a soul ? What is it saying to you? What about beneath the river; are there living beings, real or mythical living there and are they aware of you? Are they friendly, scared, indifferent?
bet your getting excited!

I just read about your book at http://www.lsu.edu/necrofile/hurricanes9.html
I'm looking forward to going to the bookstore when I get home. I grew up hearing many stories of abuse from my mother, while unknown to her it happened to me. I wasn't brave enough to tell her about it till about 6 years ago, I think that's how long I've been in therapy, lol. Anyway looking forward to reading it.
