My poem is called "Looking Cool in School" and is about how appearances can be deceiving, and may actually be attempts to cope with a special need or health issue.

My thanks to Julie Haase, the NWG Publications Chair/Editor, and to InfusionMedia. I especially want to thank Wayne Anson, who encouraged me to enter the competition to be considered for this book and reminded me of the deadline. I also want to thank the NWG poetry critique group, who told me this is an "important poem that needs to be published."
The book is $14.95 on Amazon.com at:
