Attended the #NonfictioNow conference in South Bend (which was fabulous!), and spent some time exploring the #UniversityofNotreDame and #StJoseph MI at #LakeMichigan 's North Pier.

Sometimes I just need to remove myself from all the political stuff and take a walk around the lake.

Have you read Night of Camp David? Check it out. The president thinks everyone is out to get him, wants to create a union with Canada, and will impose „tariffs [and] barriers“ against anyone who stands in the way. Oh, and no, force is not out of the question.

I'm don't like sitting down to make phone calls or send texts. And I'm not esp. good at joining marches or protests. But I am good at writing, and I HAVE to do something, so I am drafting a letter to every member of congress. What is your most important issue?

These days I am maintaining my sanity (well, you know) by spending my not-working time with my cats, photographing birds, and writing once again. More on the latter later, but the important things first. Meet Lottie and Macie:
