rainbow flag people - deposit photos

I’m going to do something authors are never supposed to do, because they tell us it will drive away potential readers. I’m going to talk about politics. I’m not doing this to be divisive. Far from it. I’m doing it because I am scared to death at what might be coming, and the only way to release some of the pain and fear is to talk about it. There was a long time, growing up, when I cared nothing for politics. I’ve voted in every election since I turned eighteen, but I never worried much about what it might mean … Read more

Point of View: It Doesn’t Have to Be Like This

sadness - deposit photos

Violence stalks our land, made manifest in an eyeblink at a Pennsylvania farm, and dark storm clouds are gathering on the horizon, threats to both our liberty and safety. And it just keeps getting worse. It’s … Read more
