Why I have not posted...lately

It is a shame...as much as I love reading and sharing reflections here, with good friends...I am at the same time trying to be present in the lives around me. We each do this in our own ways. I will try to post something, if not a book, then ...something! This is my nephew, now 4 years old, on the Staten Island Ferry in his fireman costume. He is something else!!! We were on our way home from meeting three friends of his - from the same orphanage in Hanoi - so sweet that they were all adopted in the same region. As you can see, he is coming along just fine in America!

Next books

 

Here are the books I will be posting on over the coming weeks and months. "The Book of Abraham" by Marek Halter is next - I haven't finished it, but have something to say nonetheless. Feel free to ask about any of the other books. I'd be glad to shuffle my list to suit readers' interests.

Puzzle Mystery

If you are still reading here -- I apologize for the long quiet spell! One difficult story led to another difficult truth and the puzzles, to me, seemed to multiply! The solution has not necessarily come, but I have found a wonderful set of books along the way. And perhaps a greater interest in what makes for a great story, at least in my view. It would be my pleasure to share these things with you (if anyone is still there!!) - so I wanted to at least invite you to check in again soon. And to thank you for the times you have read my posts, whether or not I knew it. Look for something here soon!!
