August 13, 2003

In this edition, Managing Editor Neil K. MacMillan takes a quick whimsical look at Herman Melville, the Poet.

Then we have an article about the winds of change at VoicesNet.

We end this edition of the Visions Literary Journal with another of our popular International Poet Profiles, this time focusing on a British poet named David Monteath. David is a regular contributor to VoicesNet.com.

The leaves are starting to struggle on the trees now and we hope that you have been enjoying some wonderful summer months, wherever you live.

After a one month break in July from publishing this e-zine, we are anxious to continue to provide you with interesting articles from our many talented writers.

Thanks for reading the VoicesNet Visions Literary Journal!

A Message from VoicesNet - by Jeff Humphrey

Its been a quiet but fast summer. The weather has been strange and the skeeters have been mysteriously few and far between. Fall approaches again as the leaves start to wither.

Amid this decline in nature, the world of VoicesNet will continue to grow and expand in many ways.
