Off to NaNoWriMo
– ON WRITING -I’m going to jump into National Novel Writing Month, aka NaNoWriMo, again this November.
'A Captain's Duty'
– REVIEW – The Tom Hanks movie “Captain Phillips” does a good job of telling the story, but the book carries the audience through his personal back story, family life, and an hour-by-hour account of the adventure with the Somali pirates.
Don't spoil the whole bunch
– ON WRITING – One day it’s Robert Frost, the next day it’s an old hit by The Osmonds. It’s amazing what goes through your head when you’re up on a ladder picking apples.
National Novel Writing Month returns
– ON WRITING – This time I’ll be tackling “He Said, She Said,” a novel about the career of a couple of journalists who start with a local newspaper just after the Watergate era.
