Thoughts on Editing

Busy Exercise

It’s spring, and thoughts turn to long walks on the beach, strolls in the park, and losing the winter flab. Sadly, with my routine, and lack of beaches, I can’t do a whole… Continue reading →

Read all about it

The era of the newsboy standing in the street attracting attention with his brazen cry is long gone, but the cultural memory that attached to those two words lingers.
