"President Zelensky was in Washington yesterday begging Republicans not to doom his country’s freedom. They were unmoved and Ukraine funding will not be passing this year. This is insanely fucked up and proof that the GOP now works for Putin." - Today's Big Stuff

Jackie Gleason once loomed large in American popular culture. I worked with him and lived to tell the tale in JACKIE GLEASON AND THE TOUR OF DOOM, a Kindle Top 100 in Broadway & Musicals.

Did you know that 1 out of every 4 cowboys was Black? Historians now estimate that between 20 to 25% of cowboys in the American West were African American. Oftentimes popular films and literature that depict the Wild West fail to convey the diverse nature of the Western Frontier.

Dayton Hyde ended workshops by encouraging writers to imagine they were great writers. Invent a secret pen name, he'd say. Imagine the writer you want to be. It was his trick to help keep the dogs of doubt at bay.

What's your theme?
"It seems to me that every good story has a theme, recognized or not. Tell your story and don't worry. The theme lies in it, maybe to be discovered by critics, not by you."--A. B. Guthrie, Jr.

For most writers, writing is hard work. There’s no easy way around it. Be wary of writing workshops and books with the word “easy” in the title.

Reading a little Joan Didion aloud this morning for sound and rhythm. Music’s such a major part of writing. Read your own writing aloud. Listen to what the eye doesn't see.

Sending good thoughts to the cast of Final Appearance on opening night at Lakewood Theatre, Madison, Maine. I wrote the comedy as a love letter to summer stock, and Lakewood is one of the oldest summer theatres in the United States (1901).
