A fun post, Kate! You have a history of just boldly reaching out to people no matter the glory or glories that surround them. I love that. And then you show readers that they are just people too. Love that even more. Add a dash of humor, brushes of paint and some music and what a world we are fortunate to enjoy with you!
Thanks, Beth. Glad you enjoyed the story. And yes, peoples is peoples. No harm in asking. What’s the risk? Crickets. They won’t kill ya! I ran into Michael Updike at the farmers’ market a few months ago, told him the story. He got a kick out of it. J. Updike was also a member of our church back in the day, St. John’s Beverly Farms. So, lots of cross-threads.
Lovely encounter with John Updike. I agree with your conclusion: I still don't know what I'm doing, and I've been trying to find out for a l-o-n-g time.

Good story. I can picture you slinking out.
Picture the fabulous composer first, then the slinking out. 😂
Absolutely! 😉🎼

Ah yes, we’re all members of the know-nothing gang, whether we know it or not!
