The First Time I Was Nationally Published, Part 2

As was previously stated, this is in a Harvard library,at Cambridge Mass,
Northwestern University and North Carolina at Chapel Hill and a few others.

An Available Literary Credit

Concerning writing, I was influenced at the academy, at a young age.  It was one 

teacher who brought it out.  Then, at a private university, it was one professor who 

refined it ... a Renaissance scholar and laureate published thousands of times.  

You have to be in control of your senses and perception as a matter of instinct, in
order for you to notice what needs to be conveyed or expressed in writing.  You
can't do it by a rigid set of mechanics.  You still need to possess the sensitivity to
notice things that others overlook, no matter how many teachers are involved in
your education.

If you can feel it, whatever it is at the time you are feeling, you can communicate it;   
if you're in control of your senses while communicating.  If you're not in control,
then your writing will become melodramatic, sickeningly sweet, or rigidly starched.

Three Security Clearance Certificates & Five Letters of Recommendation

To Whom it May Concern,

The following is posted, in order to streamline references and even curiosity.
The five letters below were written by 1} a professor, author, and publisher,
2} a philosophy professor, 3} a publisher and author, 4} a former landlord,
5} a former and present employer who was/is my contacting officer in gov-
     ernment contract, commercial, and residential construction work.   Yeah,
     I'm no stranger to operating the backhoe, skidsteer, steam roller, jack ham-
     mer, target saw, Fein tool, rivet buster, etc.

The three current (in-force) security clearances below are:  1} My FBI security
clearance,  2} my Pennsylvania State Police security clearance, also known as
the Act 114 clearance, and  3} my Act 151 security clearance.  We start with
Jpegs of my 2014 security clearances.
_______________________________________________________________



This is my 2014 FBI security clearance.   It's like all-purpose flour, in that it affirms
the existence of NO CRIMINAL RECORD in any of the 50 states & US territories.
This one has an added significance for me, being that I was in 26 states in the past
two years, staying in Virginia, Florida, and Ohio for extended periods of time, as well
as spending moderately transitory amounts of time in Arkansas, Texas, and California.
I was a polite, lawful, and charming gentleman ... throughout my accumulative 16,000
approximate miles of road travel.

My 2014 Pennsylvania State Police background check security clearance.

This is the Act 151 security clearance which scours a data bank in
addition to the Pennsylvania State Police one.  So, there you have it,
five letters of recommendation and three security clearance certifications

Now for the letters of recommendation:

Concerning the following letter, Duane Locke is the founder of the Immanentist
school of poetry (which has nothing to do with the Immanentist School of Philo-
sophy.)  Duane become a Renaissance scholar and then was published over two
thousand times.  He's also a recipient of the Walt Whitman Award and Edna St.
Vincent Award.

Philosophy Professor's Letter of Recommendation

Alan Britt was/is a widely published Immanentist poet, as well as publisher of Black
Moon Publications.  Even though each name mentioned in the letter was correct, the
quantity of the writings involved was exaggerated, unless you count the package of
 my unpublished works that he read during that same year.

At present, there are approximately 200+ articles, exposes, tutorials, poems, statistical
summaries, and charity organizations' news releases posted online which bear my name
as either sole writer, co-writer, or sole editor.  The posts vary in subject matter ranging
from economics, to Poli Sci to taxes to modern church corruption, to Occupational &
Environmental Medicine,to military history, to modern poetry, to a few other subjects.

I even had some of my military writings placed on display in a humble-sized British
museum, for educational purposes.

At the time the letter below was written, I was in government contract construction
work and not in journalism.

Landlord letter.  Telephone number digits, his former town of residence, and even
his email address were whited-out, for the sake of his privacy.  He was a psycholo-
gist who treated the drug and alcohol abusers of a certain major airline.

International High IQ Society Certificate

                       One such induction/membership isn't sufficient.  But, when you add to it an
                       induction into the Phi Sigma Iota language honors society and a few literary
                       credits, it helps in the credential department.  No matter what, I'm no genius.

She was infatuated with Russian culture.
