Backstory of My Poem "Write About"

Many thanks to Christal Ann Rice Cooper for inviting me to tell the story of my poem "Write About" in her excellent feature "Backstory of the Poem."

Also thanks to Steve Nolan for writing the lines that inspired the poem. Writing this story also gave me the opportunity to share my memories of our wonderful teacher the late Christopher Bursk.

I invite you to read about how I wrote this poem on Christal's Arts and Humanities site:
