The sometimes crazy, always irreverent, banter between the two is a joy to read. The movies with William Powell and Myrna Loy wasn't bad either. On a more literary bent, I read Emma by Jane Austin years ago when I was in college, and her love affair with Mr. Knightley is still fresh in my mind. Of course there's Romeo and Juliet's fling, and who can forget Madame Bovary's flings with everybody. There are many more that I enjoyed, but those are the ones that come to mind right now. (less)

If what I'm working on creates a blank, I move on to something else. If that doesn't work, I move on to something else. The time I set aside for writing is sacred. If the fiction isn't working, I write an essay. If the essay doesn't work, I write a poem, or a blog post, or a letter. If nothing works, I read, and it never fails. After a few pages, I can't wait to hit the computer again.(less)

Prologue: The Three Indians

Prologue: The Three IndiansThe frozen winter wind rattled the windows of our shack. We all sat in a semi-circle around the fireplace. My mother slowly rocked in her rocking chair mending my old torn jeans with the remnants of another old torn pair. My father sat in a straight back chair next to her. He held a long stick and absently poked into the fire with it, sending sparks up the soot-darkened Read more of this blog post »
