Glimpses of conversation are wonderful. <br />I'm a big fan of Billy's, too, and have been so fortunate to meet him during several writers conferences here in New York and Southampton. I chatted with him briefly at the tribute evening for Frank McCourt on 7/24. Billy and Frank were very good friends, and Frank's loss is a tremendous one. I was lucky to have known Frank, too, and be a student in his memoir writing workshop, an experience I'll always treasure.<br />It's amazing when I meet people who have never read Billy Collins; they are missing out! No wonder that man you passed was sitting down, reading Billy's work. It stops you in your tracks, it's so good!<br />Enjoy these fleeting days of summer!<br />You're a wonderful writer, Laura - Keep up the good work!Kathleen A.
