About this ebook
The fourth volume of Kevin J. O'Conner's love notes to the days of the week, a unique slant on the act of 'journaling'.
What began as an expression of frustration on a very Monday-like Monday has grown into an ongoing series now in its fifth year. Each day, O'Conner writes a 'love note' to that day of the week, which he then posts to his personal blog, Ordinary Average Thoughts. Consisting of only a sentence or two, these notes address a variety of subjects, from the weather, sleep, and cats, to random observations and comments about the state of the world.
The previous volumes in the series are 'Dear Monday...', 'Dear Tuesday...', and 'Dear Wednesday...' When complete, the series will consist of seven volumes, ending with, of course, 'Dear Sunday...'
Kevin J. O'Conner
Kevin J. O’Conner (56) is not your typical poet. After 30 years of writing only sporadically, Kevin J. O’Conner returned to poetry in 2013—first as a creative exercise, then for the therapeutic benefits. Since 2015, he writes every day, exploring the craft of poetry through monthly writing challenges—‘my ongoing effort to write something that doesn’t sound like something I would write’, he says. Kevin’s poems explore isolation, memory, life’s small moments, and the experience of starting over at ‘a certain age’—always with an emphasis on straightforward expression. As of Spring 2019, Kevin has published eleven collections of poems, the latest of which is WISHES SOMETIMES HAVE CONSEQUENCES, plus four volumes of ‘love notes’ to the days of the week. His poems have also appeared in Raven Chronicles, Spindrift, The CDC Poetry Project, Lament for the Dead, and the anthology VOICES THAT MATTER, and as part of the Clay? VI (2016) exhibit at Kirkland Arts Center. When not writing poetry, Kevin can be found copy-editing documents from far-flung places, attending open-mic readings, designing books, and contemplating what to cook now that he is tired of soup. He lives in Bellingham with his mom's neurotic cat, Cleo III. (updated 28 October 2019)
