Malcolm Guite, poet-in-residence at “Lead While You Stand” conference: “When facing unknowns, poetry is helpful. Maybe poems are ways of knowing.” Thanks to @Westmont president Gayle Beebe for including a poet at a leadership conference. Mind and soul are both engaged. – at Montecito, CA

Congratulations to @seanpalmer on the release of “Speaking by the Numbers.” Here it is in a charming local @LtlFreeLibrary.
