Hello, Writers!
My reading this week included finishing Fannie Flagg's latest, The Wonder Boy of Whistle Stop. It's nice to revisit favorite characters, but this novel, while garnering great reviews, doesn't hold much substance. Still, Flagg's voice is so strong on the page that it was an enjoyable read. I also enjoyed the audio version of Dan Rather's latest, Stories of a Lifetime. Nice to spend time with an old friend. I hope you're reading something interesting.
