Dear Readers, Here I am at camp once again. I seem to be here quite a lot, don’t I? Maybe I should consider building a permanent house on the grounds so I can stop packing and unpacking only to pack again. Imagine living on 700 acres with mountains a...

Writing Camp has started and I don’t have a lot of time, and many of my readers should be busy writing to, so I’ll keep today’s post simple. “If you don’t have time to read, you don’t have the time (or the tools) to write. Simple as that.” ― Stephen...
