My deadlines for the Monmouth Festival of the Arts loom ... but I've caught a head cold.

One of the last things I did before getting sick was to check out a library book -- A Garden to Keep by Jamie Langston Turner.

Digging into this novel last night, I unearthed a treasure. Out of respect for copyright, I won't quote any part of it ... but let me say I love the way this passage addresses the subject of artistic freedom.

For anyone else interested in checking out this book, I will say this: The scene I'm citing launches with the first new paragraph on page 174 and glides to a landing with a gentle satisfying sigh at the bottom of page 175.

ACHOO!

God bless me!
