The front cover featured my photograph of a flowering ornamental peach tree* in front of our house, taken with a long time exposure in the middle of the night.

Being a civic-sponsored event, they were all locals like Sandra Tsing Loh (humorist/performance artist/author and my onetime neighbor,) Luis Alfaro, Sam Eisenstein, Marilyn Hacker, Suzanne Lummis, Paul Body (ardent Facebooker,) Harry e.

Eliot, Rilke and Beckett.
