When we sign books, we connect with others who have connected with our work. But, without the internal connection, those moments will prove all too fleeting and lacking in sufficient substance. Thanks for your comment, Elizabeth. Janet Connection is such a multi-dimensional-faceted experience, isn't it?

Thanks for your comment, Elizabeth.

Anne has expressed (again) what I have experienced but had not been able to articulate. That is what she does throughout "Ordinary Aprhodite," and as she said in her interview, is thus lending all of us courage to speak or write our truths. Thank you, Anne, and thank you Janet.

As artists, we have our own way of connecting. We must stay connected in the solitude of our work and then when the work emerges into the world we find the joy in having connected to others. I know you've experienced that as well. Be well. Janet Thanks, Susan.

Again the recurring theme of connections keeps coming back to me. I've worked in solitude for so long, yet, reading what Anne says about the power of words to connect, I see that with my art and stories, I've been striving for the same thing. Thanks for the inspiration. I needed it today. Susan Janet and Anne,
