Hello Valentina,
I think you know my wife Alisa she works for Voices. I have taught photography at the UA for 25 years.
She told me that I had to listen to your story about your dog. It was so outstanding I could hardly believe my ears. So many images stormed into my brain. I was just astonished. I would like to meet you and talk with you for just awhile at Voices.
If you don’t want to I understand but I hope you will.
I just want you to know you are a truly amazing person and gifted writer.
Thanks
Ken Shorr
