I live in a small town in upstate New York, uh, Ballston Spa NY. Recently, the Ballston Spa Cemetery Association created a writing challenge about one of the village's mysteries of the cemetery. (http://ballstonspacemetery.org/2017/04/mystery-cemetery-history-writing-challenge/)
I participated by writing a poem I call "Restless Whispers" and will be reading aloud at the cemetery event called "Tales from the crypt". I will be joined by other local authors and poets on October 29 2017. (See the flyer for more details). After the event, i will be posting a copy of my poem.

(The photos in this post of the cemetery, were taken by me and my son, William). I
The flyer was provided by "The Ballston Spa Cemetery Association" and distributed as a promotional flyer for the event.
