My writing (i.e., poetry) has received, and it continues to garner, some national attention. Of all the institutions, and people, that have recognized the merit of my writing, the one that I am most proud of is the "VSA arts" Artists Registry (an affiliate of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, Washington, DC). Please see the below provided active Internet link, and the given directions, to locate the recognition of my writing on the "VSA arts" Artists Registry.

I have written a manuscript of unpublished poems titled "Reflections on the Human Condition." Someday, and somehow, perhaps I will be able to find a publisher who might have an interest in the previously described. I have always hoped that my poetry would be a vehicle via which I could improve my general life circumstances, and I still hold on to that dream.
