This page is to keep you all posted on what's new.  The cd, entitled Jo Wilkinson and Grains of Sand, is a sweet ensemble blend of voices and instruments, folk, country, blues, all original tunes, and is now available on this website.  (See Music page).  You will be able to either download specific tunes, or purchase the cd in its entirety.  If you want to contact me about it, just send me an email.  I have them available to ship out to anyone, anywhere.

On Sacred Ground:  Mother and Son, has been released!!!  Please spread the word!  You can hear one cut from that album,  Poet Man, on the Music page.  Both albums are unique, original, and life long dreams for me.  I can hardly wait to share them with all of you.

On a different note, I have a short non-fiction story recently published in the Oasis Journal 2008, entitled "A Child of the Fifties."    It came in "First Runner-Up:  Best Non-Fiction Contest.  The journal is made of of stories, poems and essays from writers over fifty.  It is full of wonderful vignettes from regular folks, including a story by my friend Dolores Geuder, and a poem by my friend Teresa Flannigan Sheehan.  The Journal can be purchased through Amazon.com.
