Dear Editor,
We want to tell Alexandra Blackwood how much we liked her writing. Poetic like a song! We all feel like Alexandra sometimes. We are sending her hugs and kisses.
Life can be sad and being creative makes us happy. It’s biological! During time alone we invite the angels and our ancesters to help us with our plans.
Sadness is no fun, but you describe it perfectly. Thats why we need artistic people like you to share your feelings. We all love the blues!
Chris and Margaret Smith

While we have you ...
... if you appreciate that access to the news, opinion, humor, entertainment and cultural reporting in the Sandpoint Reader is freely available in our print newspaper as well as here on our website, we have a favor to ask. The Reader is locally owned and free of the large corporate, big-money influence that affects so much of the media today. We're supported entirely by our valued advertisers and readers. We're committed to continued free access to our paper and our website here with NO PAYWALL - period. But of course, it does cost money to produce the Reader. If you're a reader who appreciates the value of an independent, local news source, we hope you'll consider a voluntary contribution. You can help support the Reader for as little as $1.
You can contribute at either Paypal or Patreon.
