Another icon gone. May she RIP. 🙁

I almost always hear dialogue(s) in my head. I will tweak and revise them after I've put them on paper.

I ran across a novel I wanted to read until I noticed that it was nearly 600 pages long! A 400 page novel is about all I can handle these days. To be honest, the shorter the book, the more likely I am to read it. Does anyone else have that issue? Or do you enjoy a “bigger” book?”🤔💙📚

My dad’s career in the Air Force meant our family moved every few years. I think those early years of constant travel and uprooting helped hone my observation and listening skills, among other things.

Had a great time at the Black Theatre Festival in Winston-Salem, NC. I saw two plays. The first-- “Jitney.” The second-- “Joe Turner’s Come and Gone.” Both by August Wilson. Thus far, I've seen 5 of the 10 plays in Wilson's American Century Cycle. Anybody else a fan of Wilson's work?

I'm guilty. It never ruins the ending for me. I'm always interested in finding out how the author gets there.

Oh yeah! She and Luke Combs sounded wonderful together in that performance. "Fast Car" is a classic.

Even though I have the album somewhere, I haven't heard that song in years! Thanks for sharing. I may have to go look for my album. 👍

When Morning Come (short story excerpt) "They still haven’t found my little sister’s body. It’s been more than a week now. What more proof anybody need that she ain’t dead? Ain’t like I can invite them inside my head at night so they can visit with her." chestnutreview.com/lori-d-johns...

finally watched the 1946 movie version of “Great Expectations.” I have been trying to read or watch the original movie version of “Great Expectations” (Charles Dickens) since JR High. Even though I enjoyed the movie, having seen it, I’m now even less inclined to read the book. 🫣💙📚

Gorilla, My Love by Toni Cade Bambara; Before I Forget By Leonard Pitts, Jr.; David and Goliath by Malcolm Gladwell; and Silver Sparrow by Tayari Jones to name a few. 😉

One of my all-time favorite movies. Like you said, it's hard to watch. As much as I love the film, it's even more difficult to rewatch. I guess because I know what's coming. 🙁

"When Morning Come." My latest short story. It’s about two little girls who seek refuge in the fantastical world of Greek mythology when their real lives become too difficult to bear. (The audio recording contains a glitch. Hope to fix soon). chestnutreview.com/lori-d-johns...

I became an Aretha fan because of the this album and the fact that my mom played it non-stop during a portion of my childhood. 🙂

I have this album. Been a while since I gave it a listen, but I do remembering enjoying it.

Carson McCullers's debut novel, "The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter," was published this week in 1940. McCullers wrote early sections of the book in Charlotte, NC, while living in a boardinghouse on East Boulevard that is now Copper, an Indian restaurant.

I remember this album from my dad's collection. I was always fascinated by the artwork on the cover.

My dad had this album back in the day. It's still one of my favorites. 🙂
