I've always looked at it that way too - my journey, but like Margaret Mitchell I want them burned before they see the light of day. :)Yolanda Renéehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09085436784133103221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433839509609523237.post-86644854760115642572016-08-05T17:19:35.414-05:002016-08-05T17:19:35.414-05:00Love the poem, Bish.

I had with my drawing/art for a LONG time, but a few years ago I decided to let it go and trashed it. Mostly all my writing is on my computer, so this works to keep my space less cluttered. Art takes up too much room. lol<br /><br />Congrats to you and Lee on your newest releases!
