Singing for Smiles



I'll sing to you 24 Hours a day as long as it puts a smile on your face, but I don't want to embarrass you on this alternative to MySpace. If feeling for me could grow like Minnesota's winter snow than I'll continue to sing ever m...ore with hope that my tune will not result in disgrace. I have nothing to hide and therefore I no longer need to worry about saving face. So let me know if you are interested in taking the time to get to know what nobody else cares to know. Knowledge within is far from sin, but hiding true feelings would lead me back to endless bottles of gin. Your dealing with a changed man. A fan of your personality and spirit spreading like an eagles wing span.

Anthony Salin

To Whom It May Concern,Hello and welcome to my biography. My name is Anthony Salin and I currently live and write in the State of Minnesota. I really do not consider myself a poet; however, I enjoy expressing myself through the means of creative writing. I am not the type of person that spends time studying poetry, technique, rhythm, or literary works mentioned in the history books. I just find myself thinking about how I am going to express my opinions, knowledge and experiences in a creative manner. The work I post on LULU (www.poetry.com) isn’t anything that I have spent a lot of time working on. The words just stream through my mind from time to time and I write them down on scratch paper when I feel that they are worthwhile. Here, I will always keep myself open to comments regarding revisions.I do have an educational background in journalism and composition. I started writing publicly while attending the DeSoto High school back in 1994. Here, I spent a lot of time writing for the DeSoto Pirates Treasure Chest and some of my work ended up being published in the Vernon County Broadcaster. I followed the DeSoto Pirates Football team and wrote about their games. I also participated in advanced drawing courses and wrote about the activities concerning an art club that I belonged to. There were also a few instances where the editor of the LaCrosse Tribune published my feedback in the editorials section of their newspaper. Participation in college composition courses offered at the Minnesota State Community and Technical College and the University of Phoenix has helped me advance my writing skills considerably and I owe my instructors credit for spending so much time helping me develop my core competency.Respectfully Submitted,Anthony Salin more…
