I wept just as you walked outside to the garden.

I'm awaiting the collection of poems.

I wasn't aware of Gen's memoir's. I'll b ordering that when I can afford.

They were such and inspiration and so important and they are greatly missed.

I've stopped weeping.

I awoke from a prophetic dream and today is the first day the storm seems to have passed

I realised who I am and why I am and why I came via the path I did. I wrote a poem about it for another time and place.

Big love always.

I wanted to thank you for writing as often as you do, Wes. I’ve found myself looking forward to reading them each time I get a notification in my email and it’s been a source of comfort and inspiration. I haven’t written anything in years. While I get the bug to wanna write, I can’t seem to connect pen to paper. It’s been a struggle, but one that doesn’t feel as heavy whenever I get the opportunity to read your musings. Thank you.

Zak it comes and goes and dry spells are all part of it. Keep hydrated.

These memories are priceless. Thank you so much for sharing them with us. Everything so intricately interconnected. Just as you wrote about coincidences in another entry.

It's a true blessing to know someone like Genesis closely and to be part of their life.

Hope you managed to get some more sleep and saw something really nice in your dreams 🩶

I wanted to hang with you that day. I heard the news and knew it wasn't a day to be messed with. I still feel for you — but I'm happy you had/have them in your life.

I’m the sort of person who only listens to 5 records at any given time, changing one out and putting another in to the fray every now and then. I don’t think there’s been a time in the last 15 years where one of Gen’s projects wasn’t in the mix.

Much love from New Zealand x

Gen was (and is) such a beautiful spirit, an authentic innovator. My first tattoo was a psychic cross shortly after gen's passing. Hearing CC's Godstar at Cold Waves was so special.

Regarding the weekend (meant to write on your last post), Saturday was my youngest child's birthday. He has an immune disorder & it was enough to celebrate that he was well, after a flare-up the previous weekend. Sunday I drove from South Carolina to Tennessee to play a Vexagon show with / for friends. My partner works at a coffee roaster that sells a variety of home coffee-making setups. Happy to help if I can. Any ETA on Heartworm Reader Vol. 2?

Happy Birthday to your son. Hope the show went well.. We are hopeful for April with the Reader though as I'm sure you know it's all so unpredictable these days. All the best..
