"And if he left off dreaming about you, where do you suppose you'd be? ... You'd be nowhere. Why, you're only a sort of thing in his dream! If that there King was to wake you'd go out -- bang! -- just like a candle!"

"Hush! You'll be waking him, I'm afraid, if you make so much noise."

Postcard: Galesburg to Moline to Atlanta to Austin




Thought I'd light some candles. Not yet at AWP. Leaving at 4 am tomorrow, arriving around 2 pm. Staying at the Omni downtown if you want to call me. Reading at 10:30 on Friday with University of Arizona Press Camino del Sol writers Ray Gonzalez, Maria Melendez, and Virgil Suarez. What an honor.

I will look for you when I get there.
