Hectic Red

It’s time for my Friday Fun post, in which I offer nothing more than perhaps an opportunity for some amusement. This is another one of those things that might just be fun for me, but this week’s Friday fun post is a literary trivia question of sorts. Back in Baltimore, where I grew up, there[…]

Holy Sonnet 14

It’s time for my Midweek Recommendation, in which I commend to your attention books or music or movies or anything I find worth recommending. I’m a little late getting to my midweek recommendation this week, but I hope it will prove worth the wait, nonetheless. I’d like to commend to your enjoyment, John Donne’s “Holy[…]

Here’s to Autumn

It’s time for my Sunday Reflection, in which I post some of my thoughts on almost any issue connected to writing, faith or life in general. So, for this week’s reflection, I simply want to say how much I like Autumn. I’m not even sure where to begin, although I suppose a logical place is[…]

Then[…]

It’s time for my Midweek Recommendation, in which I commend to your attention books or music or movies or anything I find worth recommending. All right, for my midweek recommendation this week, I don’t have much to say. In fact, my fundamental message to you can be summed up pretty simply, as follows: Masterpiece. Watch[…]

Standing Tall Before the Man

It’s time for my Sunday Reflection, in which I post some of my thoughts on almost any issue connected to writing, faith or life in general.
