RIP Laurie (Lawrencia) Bembeneck

Last weekend I mentioned that a couple writers came up from different states to join me in having a fish fry. The great part was that we had worked together for an online writing outlet but had never met.

LeBron James: “What Should I Do”?

The other morning I was watching Sportscenter on ESPN and along came a Nike commercial starring LeBron James.

Book Clubs and Your Writing

I mentioned earlier in the year that one of the things I’d like to do is join a book club. I’ve bounced around to a couple this year, and it’s been fun.

Good Sportsmanship Rules for Writers

Happy Mother’s Day!

Hope you all are enjoying your Mother’s Day! We had a delightful brunch for the moms in our life, complete with French toast, juice, sausages (for the men) and fruit. It was a nice day. Our dog was very excited at all the goings on and even “helped” when it came to opening presents.
