Wait, didn’t I already do one of these? Yes, I did do a 101 Must-Read Classic Books list, but that was before my site blew up that one time and I lost all of my posts. Alas, my original post is gone … forever lost in the vast space of the internet. Last night, however,…
It’s been a couple of months since I last did a What’s New Wednesday post. I didn’t forget, I promise, it’s just been crazy here. Usually by the time I’ve had a moment to type a blog post, Wednesday has come and gone. You didn’t miss much—everything that needs to be shared is usually shared,…

I’m struggling to concentrate…
