I received this note from a dear and very old friend. I had known him my entire life. I had given him my first draft of, "An Independent Mind, Knot Logic" to read. I really wanted his opinion on my work. It was my first attempt to speak about the horrors that I survived as a youth. As difficult as all of this was to do, I am so glad that I made the effort when I did. I ended up losing dg in July of 2012. The following arrived not long after his passing, written in his own hand. I am truly blessed.
A dg comment on Knot Logic----unsolicited. KAP, author & an Independent Mind
I think that, in a word, this is a BRILLIANT piece of work; at the very least, a challenging
prod at anyone who is engaged with the enchantment with Words-On-Paper. Stream of Consciousness is a term applied to certain works in the fifties (Kerouac, Burroughs
Ginsberg, including yours truly) Surely there were others before, I just don't know who.
Karen gives you the drift of S.O.C., but just blows it all upon the river bank with this
piercing stream of thought. That it's in tight verse form is, I think, eye-opening.
Having known Karen for most of those turbulent years only enhances my salute to this effort, revealing extraordinary talent.
The mother and family, those addressed in this piece, must shiver. The daughter, the writer,
has given us stuff that many of us may never attain to.
Cheer up Mom, I truly believe that daughter has reached beyond the trickle of a Personal
Vendetta to deep water, where many dog paddle to keep a nose in the air.

She may or may not acknowledge it, but she did confide that the main goal of writing
this was------Healing! (or Hope, take your pick.)
