And of being at a public event and writing personalized love poems for people.<br /><br />The only time I&#39;ve ever made &quot;money&quot; for writing a poem was sometime back in the &#39;90&#39;s, a guy at the office where I was working at the time commissioned me to write a poem for him to give to his wife for their wedding anniversary. For payment, I gave him a choice, either cash (I think I suggested $10) or a meal. He opted for &quot;paying&quot; me with the meal. (Barbecued chicken in his back yard. Mmmmm yum.)<br /><br />Word verification is &quot;moolik&quot;. Must mean something, hmm?Lyle Daggetthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10731915540520704368noreply@blogger.com
