Sandburg special on PBS

[Gene C]

I watched it also....it was better than the football game. I was disapointed they didn't focus more on his biography on Lincoln. Did make me wish I could write better, and I appreciate more those that can. I was very impressed by Penelope Niven, Sandburg's biographer. Learning about Sandburg's background was interesting, never knew he was involved in the Social Democratic Party. I will also have to learn more about his "American Songbag". Unfortunately, I was sleepy and I kept dozing on and off through the program, but when I was awake, it was pretty good.

the show has inspired me to incourage all you writers out there (especically you, Rob Wick) to stick with it, and don't give up. Those of us without your talent and skill, want you to get your work published so we can enjoy it, and brag about you to others so they can enjoy your talent too.
