"If you want to write fiction, the best thing you can do is take 2 aspirins, lie down in a dark room, and wait for the feeling to pass. If it persists, you probably ought to write a novel."
Lawrence Block "Writing a Novel "

A poem by Linda Laubscher
A Surprise
A surprise came today
to my school
From Ukraine she came
her eyes full of pain.
She just stood when I said "let's play."
I noticed her hair
just like mine but fair.
My teacher said we need to care
to be aware
of her fears of her tears.
I gave her my scarf
I made her laugh
her name is Alinka
