I'm kvelling for a friend here:
On December 24, Garrison Keillor will be reading a poem by my choir colleague Anna George Meek, "An Old Man Performs Alchemy On His Doorstep at Christmastime." You can read the poem
here . It's from her book
Acts of Contortion, winner of the Brittingham Prize in 2003.
Many of you are regular listeners or readers, I know. If you're not, check the web site for local stations and give a listen!
