Musings Over Coffee: Put On Those Blinders
I was grounded so much when I was growing up that all I had were books, usually Readers Digest books that my mom would order. Classics, Seven Wonders of the World, Ghost Stories, those kinds of titles, and the annual almanac (do they still have those?). Then one day I found this paperback with aContinue reading “Musings Over Coffee: Put On Those Blinders”
The Academic on Facebook Live #musicsunday
I’ve never heard of this band before but they’re my newest favorites. Here they are doing a Facebook Live event and taking advantage of the delay that comes with such things.

Writers create.””
Musings Over Morning Coffee: We’re Storytellers. We Don’t Quit.
For as long as I can remember, I’ve always had a love affair with books. One of my first favorite books was one about crystals and how they’re formed. Another one was Hans Christian Andersen’s original version of the Little Mermaid–you know, the one where the mermaid actually becomes the foam in the ocean, i.e.Continue reading “Musings Over Morning Coffee: We’re Storytellers. We Don’t Quit.”
Keep Writing
“On the surface, the book is a satire of Soviet antics and recriminations through the lens the devil visiting Moscow. Below this layer, however, The Master and Margarita is a Faustian tale of a writer and his struggle to publish his life’s work. It’s the story of a man questioning the purpose of striving whenContinue reading “Keep Writing”
