May you have all the happiness and luck that life can hold—and at the end of your rainbows may you find a pot of gold. ~Irish Blessing Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Why Do You Read Novels?
Some time ago I had an interview with a writer who said he never read fiction. He didn’t like fiction. He wanted to read true stories and obviously thought fiction a waste of time. I have no idea why he was interviewing me since he felt that way. I do write fiction, after all. Anyway, he asked me why anyone …

National Love Your Pet Day
Every day is some kind of special day on the internet. Actually, I think we should consider every day a special day – another day to live and love. But the special days I’m talking about are when somebody – I don’t know who – declares that this is “Ice Cream for Breakfast Day” or “Eat a Pizza Day.” I …
