IT'S ABOUT TIME

I posted the essay below so that my friend Esther Helfgott could pick it up already blog-formatted for her site. Visit her at the It's about Time reading series at the Ballard Public Library on the second Tuesday of every month, six p.m., or at this URL: http://itsaboutimewriters.homestead.com/
