I am so happy to share the news that my third collection of poems, Concertina, has just been published!
The title poem is a tribute to my late father-in-law, James Braulick, who played the concertina. I was fortunate to be able to borrow his actual concertina to photograph for the cover of this book. If you would like to see photographs of him playing his musical instrument, click HERE to see the post I did in memory of him last year on his birthday. Below are some of the many photographs I took of his well-loved “Pearl Queen” concertina.
If you would like to purchase a copy of Concertina, it is available from the Kelsay Books website, from Northfield’s own Content Bookstore, or from Amazon. (I recently learned that not only will Content’s knowledgeable staff help you choose books (new and used) across all genres, they will also mail up to six copies of a book–as many as can fit into the envelope–for a flat rate of 99 cents!)
Thanks to all of you who helped me create this new collection!

I always appreciate hearing your reactions, Myrna. Thank you for this comment! (I often think how, without your able tutoring, I would not know how to manage a website at all! And it is always so cheering to see you at Content Bookstore! Thank you!
I’m so excited for you and proud of you for publishing another book! Also, I clicked on the link and read the post in memory of your father-in-law, Jim. What a lovely tribute. Reading it brought tears to my eyes and also had me thinking about my family – both sides of which farmed.
Thank you all, very much for your support–today and everyday!
