When I Got Dressed Again, a
collection of her poetry, was published
by the The Arts Alliance Center at Clear
Lake (TAACL).
The books:
"A tale of murder and the unpredictable twists of human justice. Meeks’s characters, ripped full-blown from the fabric of the actual, are helpless puppets dangling from the thread of passion, jerked helter-skelter by the cruel puppeteer of fate. In seamless, elegant prose, she renders a world of spiritual and emotional chaos, assuaged momentarily by the mystical balm of art."
-Larry D. Thomas, Poet Laureate of Texas, 2008, and 2002 Violet Crown Book Award Finalist"What a fun and intelligent read! Her wit and elemental humanity sparkle in surprising bursts and lift the story far beyond the ordinary."
-The Reverend Mark and Reverend Becky Edmiston-Lange, Emerson Unitarian Church, Houston"Thought to be top-notch on the cellblock. Ms. Meeks’s work enables me to escape for a few hours."
-Ed "Mongo" Hamilton # 875302, Coffield Unit, Texas Department of Criminal Justice
"Read this book! It will keep you on the edge with laughter, surprise and suspense."
-Kay Taylor Burnett, The Arts Alliance Center at Clear Lake Founder/Director"Warning: do not start reading this on a busy day. You will not be able to put it down. This tale of passion, humor, pathos, and pain is riveting."
-Coralie Bryant, Professor, Columbia University, New York"Dodie Rocks!"
-Tina Snelling, L.L.P., Administrative Law Judge, Partner, Sheiness, Scott, Grossman & Cohn
