The pieces included here were all penned in writing groups that follow the Amherst Writers and Artists practices as described by Pat Schneider in "Writing Alone and With Others". Poet Healed is a collection of fiction, creative nonfiction, poetry and personal reflections, that have not been over-polished.

Some of the inspirations for these writings are a phrase or a line from a poem; some are discussed in the footnotes.
The writings are somewhat loosely organized according to the following themes: Health Issues, Autobiographical, Family and Friends, and Life and Living.

In the spirit of Pat Schneider and Chip Spann, I have observed and now report—in writing. Most of these writings are minimally edited, although I do include some before and after writings. There are a few that are incomplete; they are the beginnings of stories that you might see again later.
I invite you to join me in my journey toward wholeness. If you find that you are drawn to a particular piece, please let me know. For the enjoyment of copy editors, I have left a few errors.
