Senator Chris Coons' office left me a voicemail after I wrote asking for his support of The Protect Adoptees and American Families Act (PAAF Act) H.R. 5492 / S. 2923. www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c... Thank you.

This whole thing reminds me of the way Mike Stackpole started off the,"How to write a novel," with a letter from one character to another to apologize for some terrible misunderstanding before you've even plumbed the depths of who the characters are and someone is presuming the worst.

It's been ages since I have been to GenCon and the writers symposium was always the best part of it for me. Maurice has always been a joy to interact with on panels and he has been nothing but gracious to attendees with his time. I would honestly vote him least likely to bear anyone Ill will.

If reaching a place of financial comfort and independence is the dream - Yes, but I think today it is a multi-generational dream instead of a dream that's achievable for an individual. The biggest dreams were achieved by people lucky enough to be in the right place and time.

How long are you going? I went for 10 days, but packed for 5 and did laundry at some point with a service. What Google maps did not tell us at the time (13+ yrs ago) was the path that seemed short to the hotel was up and down lots of stairs over canals in Venice. I had no regrets packing light.

Yesterday I learned that an author who writes prose comparable to "The Eye of Argon" is romantically involved with less-skilled modern day John Taylor and somehow that figures. [Granted Argon was written by a 16-yo pre-internet] [Google: "John Taylor" + Charlatan]

No, that's André Tchaikovsky's skull. André (born Andrzej Krauthammer) was a composer and pianist who donated his skull to the Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC) in his will with the explicit wish that it be used as Yorick's skull in Hamlet. Not a Nazi skull.

@courtneyellis.bsky.social I saw an ad for a Benedict Cumberbatch movie, "Thing with Feathers," and hoped for a delightful avian documentary where he mispronounces "Penguin." It's a drama where he is a widower and father of two little boys, his grief manifests as a terrifying crow. 😱
