How is a Symposium different from a Conference? Self isn’t sure.
All she knows is: it is FREEZING in self’s house here in Redwood City, probably a result of the 70-year-old floor heater (Self learned from the real estate agent who helped with the purchase that this house was built in 1939. A certified antique! Just like self!) having given up the ghost. Self knows just what hubby will say: We have no money! Double up on your sweaters! Okey-dokey!
Here’s about the symposium, which Karen Llagas and Edwin Lozada helped organize. Karen, aside from being a fab poet, has energy to the nth power. If only self could bottle a little of that, for the days when she is shivering at her computer. Edwin teaches at Woodside High School, apart from writing poetry and organizing and doing a gazillion other community-related work!
