Welcome to my storefront. After a twenty year journey of writing this poetry with the inspiration of my Lord, we are finally here. My thanks and appreciation go out to my friends, neighbors and professors at the Collin County Community College here in McKinney who encouraged me to publish these works. All net profits from these First Limited Edition poetry books will be set aside and spent on Christian based projects and programs in Collin County and the Tri-County areas which include the counties of Henderson, Kaufman, VanZandt county with special assistance to the area of Gun Barrel City in Texas for the homeless, the poor and infirm. Anyone who wishes to "Preview" part of the poetry work that are in my books, may do so by accessing my personal website: www.internationalpoet.com and clicking on the link named "poetry work of author" to the left of the site. We are also excited to announce our second book of poetry that has been published, titled, "Rainbows Amidst Storms." For those of you that cannot afford copies of these books, copies of both of these books are now available on a loan basis from the library of the Central campus of the Collin County Community College here in McKinney, as well as the McKinney library, the five libraries in the Plano Library system and now the Allen Library system. Thank you for sharing a part of my life experience and my revealation in knowing my Lord on a personal basis in my life. It is my prayer, that you too, will find comfort in my experiences and in His words. Warm Regards, John J. Rigo McKinney, Texas and Gun Barrel City, Texas
