Ends and Beginnings


Rudy “To the great people of West Virginia we have, together, a really great chance to keep making a big difference. Problem is, Don Blankenship, currently running for Senate, can’t win the General Election in your State…No way! Remember Alabama. Vote Rep. Jenkins or A.G. Morrisey!” – Trump tweet 5-7-18



Tomorrow there are Republican Senate primaries in Indiana, Ohio and West Virginia but the race I am really interested in watching is the West Virginia contest. The primary will determine who will run against a sitting Senator, moderate Democratic Joe Manchin.



Don Blankenship, one of three Republican candidates, is a former coal mine executive  who spent a year in jail following the 2010 explosion at his Upper Big Branch Mine that killed 29 workers.

An open letter to Amazon:

Dear Amazon,



I should be your Holy Grail. I’m the real deal, an actual reader who goes through books carefully, thinks about what they mean and how they’re written, and then writes a considered, thoughtful, and hopefully helpful analysis—in other words, I’m a book reviewer.



Writers, potential customers, publishers, and oh yes—you, Amazon—should be jumping for joy and giving thanks that I’ve taken hours to read and yet more hours to craft reviews for hundreds of books. Instead, Amazon, you’ve decided to punish reviewers like me.

This is true! But you also need someone who really understands storytelling! My coach/workshop facilitator has me writing with confidence AND planning out my story so I don’t get lost in the middle!
