After Alma passed away in 1996, we all (her eight children) wanted a copy of her poems. So we took the hand written poems and typed them one by one, then we photocopied them and put them in a binder for all in the family to see. In 2009 we felt we wanted something that would stand the test of time, so we decided we would publish them in a book. We divided them into categories, took up some money and added illustrations. That took forever but here we are! Almas first poem was written in 1938 about her family. Then in 1941 she began writing them to her soon to be husband, Gerald Lester Reasor, while he was stationed in Columbia, South Carolina. There are some poems about love, poems written to help her children in English class, and some silly poems about nothing in particular, but most of the poems are about people she knew and loved. She wrote a lot in the early morning hours waiting for her children to return home on Friday and Saturday nights. She also wrote some religious poems for Vacation Bible School. She was very active in the church. In 1990, Gerald, the love of her life passed away. The last poems that Alma wrote were about him.

There were two women in Zhenbao's life: one he called his white rose, the other his red rose. One was a spotless wife, the other a passionate mistress. Isn't that just how the average man describe a chaste widow's devotion to her husband's memory - as spotless, and passionate too? Maybe every man has had two such women - at least two. Marry a red rose and eventually she'll be a mosquito-blood streak smeared on the wall, while the white one is "moonlight in front of my bed." Marry a white rose, and before long she'll be a grain of sticky rice that's gotten stuck to your clothes; the red one, by then, is a scarlet beauty mark just over your heart. In Eileen Chang's eloquent and evocative novella, Zhenbao is a devoted son, a diligent worker, and guarded in love. But when he meets a friend's spoilt, spirited, desirable wife, he cannot resist her charms, or keep their relationship under his control. As he succumbs to passions and resentments, Red Rose, White Rose is both sensual and restrained.

Things are looking up. For the first time in what feels like years, Toby Daye has been able to pause long enough to take a breath and look at her life - and she likes what she sees. She has friends. She has allies. She has a squire to train and a King of Cats to love, and maybe, just maybe, she can let her guard down for a change. Or not. When Queen Windermere's seneschal is elf-shot and thrown into an enchanted sleep by agents from the neighboring Kingdom of Silences, Toby finds herself in a role she never expected to play: that of a diplomat. She must travel to Portland, Oregon, to convince King Rhys of Silences not to go to war against the Mists. But nothing is that simple, and what October finds in Silences is worse than she would ever have imagined. How far will Toby go when lives are on the line, and when allies both old and new are threatened by a force she had never expected to face again? How much is October willing to give up, and how much is she willing to change? In Faerie, what's past is never really gone. It's just waiting for an opportunity to pounce.
