SJ ROZAN

If you haven't been to the New York Botanical Garden train show you might not know the organizing principle: it's not about the trains. The trains run on tracks in the big conservatory, among miniature models of New York area landmarks -- all made out of plants. Twigs, barks, seeds, leaves, and occasionally (see the TWA Terminal) large fungi. Every year they add some new buildings. It's amazing. If you get a chance to go, you'll thank yourself.

I'm a writer, publishing both as SJ Rozan and, with Carlos Dews, as Sam Cabot. (I'm Sam, he's Cabot.) Here you can find links to my almost-daily blog posts, including the Saturday haiku I've been doing for years. BUT the blog itself has moved to my website. If you go on over there you can subscribe and you'll never miss a post. (Miss a post! A scary thought!) Also, I'll be teaching a writing workshop in Italy this summer -- come join us!
