After National

I was smart to take the Monday after RWA National off. I’m up early – have gone through my emails, read the paper, had a cup of coffee and will start to write. I need to take a shower, buy groceries and vacuum. But I need to write more. So if anyone stops by this … More After National

Washington Post
July 18, 2009
I opened the link for the Washington Post article on RWA National and saw a familiar face…after 50 years of dreaming about being in the Post, I finally made it. Why am I waving…like a geek? I don’t even remember a photographer…
