READER ENGAGEMENT
All these pieces were written to prompt engagement and action.

If as you read you discover questions, hidden thoughts, anecdotes from your life or contrasting ideas, I would be grateful if you could share them with me. For this reason I have provided this form. There is not obligation.

If you would like to have a discussion with me about this please indicate so and we can correspond. All comments will be kept private.

If there's a topic that fits this collection that I should consider writing about, I welcome suggestions. Likewise if you have ideas for how this work can better serve its readers.

With thanks to the Collies, Sparklit judges and community, and especially my wife Nicki for her critical support, and Ian Hore-Lacy for kicking me up the pants enough to write.
