In one of my #StarTrek novels I named a starship after McRaven. He’s one of the smartest, most accomplished admirals of my lifetime. And he’s not wrong here.

I know some of you out there write horror. I don't have any horror shorts that aren't already out for submission someplace, so I can't really use this list at the moment. But maybe you can! authorspublish.com/40-magazines...

You know, the more you read this simple sentence, the crazier it gets. Seems like a pretty big deal? Maybe?

Pretty cool for this lifelong Beach Boys fan to have Al Jardine use his photos from a long-ago concert to celebrate the life of the great Dolly Parton. They were on the same bill at 1977’s Day on the Green #1, and I was there with my trusty Minolta.

A Facebook post by Beach Boy Al Jardine shows a concert poster, two photos of the Beach Boys, and one of Linda Ronstadt and Dolly Parton.

This timeline is terrible in so many ways. But we got to share the world with Dolly Parton, and that's a blessing we can carry with us for the rest of our days. (My photo: Linda Ronstadt and Dolly, May 28, 1978, Oakland Stadium, at that year's Day on the Green #1)

Once again.

Black and white photo of Marjane Satrapi with the quote:

"The world is not divided between East and West. You are American. I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you.

And our governments are very much the same."

It’s not too late for states and Congress to stop Trump from subverting the midterms

With only nine months before the midterm elections, Trump is plotting to prevent Democrats from taking control of Congress.
