Hey Lori Brown — thanks for the kind and generous words! I actually read your post in bed, right before falling asleep, and I woke up this morning thinking it was something I dreamt. I actually had a thought ‘buddy, you have to check your ego if you’re dreaming about people saying nice things about your writing.’ Of course, I then see your post and am very flattered but also relieved I don’t have to worry about my ego so much.

Illumination has the potential to be a fantastic community and I am discovering writers I would have likely not known about through it. Thank you for the introduction and for connecting people and thank you especially for starting my day off in such a great way. This is the best morning of quarantine by far!

Cheers!
