Writer, recovering broadcaster, and former military spouse? That's me! USA TODAY bestselling author, hound dog wrangler, DIYer in an old house, cocktail connoisseur, classic film buff, and occasional university adjunct.
Four writers who have written about war.
My most recent newsletter is four reflections on writers who have written about war.
Also I promoted events with David Swinson and Aggie Blum Thompson and Carrie Callaghan, so that's cheerful! Unless Carrie gets you lost in the woods during her writing retreat.

Andy Ogles doesn’t belong in American society. This kind of hatred and bigotry needs to be shutdown at every turn. And racists like this piece of shit need to be turned into outcasts.
Enough adjectives.
If your primary skill is “being good at business” then you most definitely aren’t. You’re just good at extraction.

Well, I’m not exactly springing, but at least my clocks are set correctly! How are you?

Wut?
Thanks, Will! As evidenced by the dog hair all over the boot, I hope so, too, because I have things to do!❤️

Sure, sure, I’m behaving myself. Why do you ask?

Mental check-in... Memes only
Tillis to Noem: "A 14 month old dog is basically a teenager in dog years. You decided to kill that dog bc you hadn't invested the appropriate training, then you have the audacity to write a book & say it's a leadership lesson! ... Those are bad decisions not unlike what happened in Minneapolis"
But his chances of becoming a metaphorical bus speed-bump just went up…
So let me get this straight: Trump fired Noem after she lied about spending over $200 million of taxpayer dollars on ads promoting herself.
But he wouldn't lift a finger after two Americans were killed by her federal agents?
It’s a start.
(Yes, this is a subtweet on national events.)
I was a guest at the birthday party for the King of Thailand.
Karoline Leavitt told us the US State Department was helping Americans stranded in the Middle East.
She lied.
One Texas woman in Dubai called the State Department hotline, was scolded for being scared and then hung up on.
This administration is *full* of incompetent, rude people.
KLOBUCHAR: Alex Pretti's parents said what you said was one of the most hurtful things they could imagine. Do you want to say anything to Alex's parents?
NOEM: I did not call him a 'domestic terrorist.' I said it 'appeared to be an incident of'
KLOBUCHAR: I think the parents saw it for what it was

The artist behind Rainbow Brite, G. G. Santiago, recently died. Her life story is incredible. She survived the dark horrors of WWII at a very young age.
Thank you, G.G. You added such joy to my life!

If March comes in like a lamb, does it go out like a lion? I’m not sure, but I’m determined to enjoy the day, today! I hope you can, too.

#KidLit friends, I am hearing rumblings that the desire for middle grade is slowly inching up again. Your moment may be closer than you think, so maybe it's time to consider dusting off that manuscript you've been too afraid to even think about.
#Svengoolie can brighten the week, no matter what might be happening in the world.

Wanna say to a lot of people among my acquaintance today, “Make it make sense.”
When you think about it for more than 5 seconds, it really is both insane and outrageous that *HILLARY CLINTON* - a woman who apparently has never met with nor corresponded with Jeffrey Epstein was one of the first people deposed.
