well, hey there! so nice to meet you all. I am One of the Linda Sands. there's actually a bunch of us- at least 41. with over 15 on linked in... and a bunch on good old FB. Not sure how I "caught your eye" but I think you are very inventive and totally love the sarcasm and evilness. Yum! There is no publicity that is bad publicity! If this is about Billy Collins stories, I've got one told to me secondhand- and a prank I personally initiated, from said tale. Keep in touch. All best, Linda
you did, in fact, catch our eye through our billy collins searchings. and god knows we can't resist a surname that is also a noun. tell us about this collins prank! join us!
While attending a Southampton Writing Workshop, many of us frequented the same bar, as the instructors. One night- mind you- I wasn't there that night... but, one particular night, my friends sitting on the outdoor patio enjoying a cool breeze and a cold beer watched with horror and fascination as SOMEONE had sex in a car in a parking lot. A car that wasn't in the shadows- at all. HAHAH. They cheered and hooted as a bare ass flashed in a window, and shortly thereafter applauded as Billy and UNNAMED girl climbed out of said car. ;-) A few months later, I had VIP seating to a BC reading. I printed up a shirt ( as a dare from my Southampton pals) that said, "Not the girl in the car at Tidewater" and sat where he could see me, At the book signing later, I asked, "Did you read my shirt?" He laughed, said he recognized me from the workshop, asked if I was going back that year. When I said , "Maybe." " He said, "I'll see you in the parking lot." hahaha. Guy has cajones.
