I have been doing photography my whole life and my poetry for 55 years. I have over 500 poems and thousands upon thousands of photos. I am 74.5 and am not concerned about the money.
I love creating and would like to combine my two passions. Thank you !

Noooooo! I’m 70 and just getting started! I wrote my first haiku this morning and probably screwed it up (waiting now for a recommended book on how to write haiku poetry). I want to pair them with pictures I’ve taken over the last 20 years. Many people do their best work as elders because…their elders and we know a lot! Go for it, Ray!

My problem, im 70 years old, thinking clear can be a challenge, so i feel im on limited time.
