A blue spruce bbq draws near. But there is no pit master. There is no grill. It's just what the wind brings to Edwards. Some say it started with a lit cig out a car window, others say it's just nature or 2020 being 2020 or chance. Whatever the why my friend, please do...
I read
One day, I'm hoping @AMI's daily published stories will be as good as the internet's top stories. One day, I am hoping the internet's top stories will be as exciting to read as our favorite books. One day at a time.

I write
Writing is work, and after grinding out the bulk of the work, I can occasionally reach the point where I write for pleasure and honestly have no idea what the hell is going on. It's great. Lately, the work's been newsletters, interviews, and top of mind. Beyond the daily practice, I have unfinished memoir about my grandfather's WWII letters, an unfinished novel loosely based on TIn Tin's political impact and always thought if all my notebooks were put together in just the right away, there could be something readable there. As is life, enjoyable when unfinished.
