Sam & Megs Beach





Sam and Megs Beach, where we idled many a day in 2000!! Dad, Eowyn, Coco and I daringly ventured into The Cave (which is underwater in hightide and rather perilous!!), where we sang "And Can It Be" loudly and echoingly, joyuously remembering singing in that very cave six years ago with Bens and Sam!!! (Becca and Sam have been there too!!)

Long my imprisoned spirit lay
Fast bound in sin and nature's night
Mine I beheld a quickening ray
I rose
The dungeon flamed with light
My chains fell off
My heart was free
I rose
Went forth
And followed thee!!

I have natural writing talent, and derive deep satisfaction from creating prose, yet I have spent my life longing to write novels and not doing so. The work I am submitting came into existence because I was applying to attend the Iowa Writers’ Workshop. Belonging to this writing community would enable me to be disciplined in producing literature. The tutelage and mentoring I would receive is something I y...
