“Patricia,

I just wanted you to know how much my class and I enjoyed your poetry and the workshop. You definitely inspired some already aspiring writers. You should hear what they have produced and continue to improve on. We’ve been working on bringing the poetry to life when we read it and I have been amazed at the results. Continued success with your work, and I hope you had a positive experience here in the States and especially Oak Park.

Peace,
Karen E. Fogg”
