A Travel Writer’s Quandary
I forked up another bite of my barely warm dinner and finally came to the conclusion that it was inedible. Everyone in our group agreed.

The Incredible Hotels of Vegas:Part One

This is the Opposite of Writer’s Block
I don’t have writer’s block. I have…what is this…writer’s deluge? I am deluged with so many words, so many images, so many activities, so many experiences from the last few weeks that it’s hard to get them organized.
