@maureenstanton.bsky.social on "the evocative power of the smallest grains of storytelling, those tiny sensory details," and how they allow memoir readers to "not only see and hear people and actions, but ... viscerally feel the moods and emotions of the story." brevity.wordpress.com/2025/04/11/t...

"'When Steve’s pain ended, mine would begin.' From that pain, Stanton has made this beautiful memoir." Thankyou @marciaaldrich.bsky.social -such a thoughtful, wise review.

Sharing Heather Cox Richardson's column, which I read daily. It saves my sanity in these times. open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

Trump has "accomplished" so much in 45 days because, as any two-year-old knows, it's easy to DESTROY and takes a long time to build something. Apologies to 2-year-olds.

Yup.

PASS IT ON!!!

Kudos to the @bangordailynews.bsky.social for their excellent choice of photo to accompany story of Mills standing up to Trump.

Heather Cox Richardson has cogently summed up the Musk-Trump coup happening. It's frightening. This is a must read. open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

Apparently, our government has depended too much on the integrity of elected officials. When there is none, nor courage, it seems all too easy to run amok over democracy. What's happening is heartbreaking.

Hahaha
