  8. Dr. Denny Wilkins – Dr. Denny Wilkins professes journalism at a small, private university in the Northeast. He has climbed, hiked, kayaked, photographed, skied, and otherwise meandered aimlessly throughout the American West for decades. He has degrees in geology, environmental studies, and communication — and has tried to make use of them as a co-founder of the progressive cultural blog ScholarsandRogues.com. He’s broadly interested in how the world works and why it works that way. He hates writing, although he does like having written well.

  9. Lynda – I moved from California to Alabama in 2008, and now raise chickens, geese and ducks for fun. Most days will find me gardening, quilting, reading a good book, or occasionally writing for fun. I am a Sabbath keeping Christian. I will not apologize for my freedom of religion, nor will I tell you're wrong if your own beliefs differ from mine. Our country was founded on that right. I'm not rich, nor privileged, or powerful. I am an underdog, one among many, who lately feels like barking. Sorry, but somebody needs to say it out loud, and I am open to your comments and thoughts.

    So clever, and olive it!

    Seriously, the photo is a wonderful reminder of why I love to garden. Symmetry, color, and future wealth and health are all evident here. 🙂

  11. RMW – Culver City, Los Angeles, California, USA – I am an explorer and creative person. I've had many jobs, careers and interests... everything in life and the universe fascinates me. Born in Brighton, England, I've lived my entire adult life in Los Angeles, California. A few years ago I rediscovered photography which is a great excuse to get outside and look. I'm also in the process of re-writing some of my unpublished short stories and possibly a novel. .

  15. wildsherkin – Sherkin Island, Co Cork, Ireland – I like to make things, and I don't always have time and space to do that. Sherkin Island is a tiny island off the south west coast of Cork. It's one of the Carbery One Hundred Isles in Roaring Water Bay, just a ten minute ferry ride from Baltimore in West Cork yet a million miles away from my day job.

    Good one! What a lovely image. I’m thinking of a different type of ‘sowing’ when I look at this, like rows of colourful threads…:)

  16. hopesquires – I've left behind the daily grind to write full time and to figure out what my own flourishing tree looks like. I'd love to help you flourish and grow along the way, so that you, too, can cultivate a life that pleases God.

    I love the colors and how orderly the garden looks right now!

  17. typewriterpoet – I enjoy many poetry styles but enjoy short poetry the most and a little bit of microfiction, but the challenge of a long poem has it's enjoyment as well!
