I had such a wonderful time sharing my stories with the kids at the Morton Grove Public Library yesterday. Thanks to Leslie Marley and Jessie Bond for making it happen. I hope we inspired some budding authors!

The highlight of today: A rerun of THE GOLDEN GIRLS featuring @robertpicardo.bsky.social as a doctor. Obligated to tag @seanferrick.bsky.social over at @trekculture.bsky.social, who was just talking about watching through the show for the first time.

Received a delightful blast from the past, in the form of a picture from the debut of my play, THE CLUMSY PRINCESS, at the East Valley Children's Theatre. Really looking forward to returning there in February when they produce THE SECRET MEDUSA.

Once a year, on 9/11, I take some time out of my day to listen through to the soundtrack of COME FROM AWAY. It's a heart-warming reminder of the goodness and kindness that existed in the world back on that Tuesday. And that I hope still exists today.
