Posted on June 25, 2009 by K

I started this day’s diatribe early in the afternoon, after I heard that phone call.  And I dumped it on one of my publishers in the middle of a contract conversation. She said: It breaks your heart, doesn’t it?  I … Continue reading →

Posted on June 25, 2009 by K

This morning and some

Posted on June 11, 2009 by K

Posted on June 9, 2009 by K
