Duc has an essay ("A Jackrabbit in the Prison Yard")  in the new book, What's Nature Got to do with Me?: Staying Wildly Sane in a Mad World.  Unfortunately, the publisher, Native West Press, isn't on the prison's list of approved vendors, so Duc cannot receive the book. I received a copy for each of us yesterday and I'm holding his for him till his release--someday. He won't get to see it with all the essays and poems and nature photographs and sketches till then. Last night I did photocopy the cover, table of contents, his essay and bio notes to send him. It made for a thick envelope. Fingers crossed that the prison authorities will let it through. (In the past I've had thick envelopes returned to me, considered prohibited material.)
