A Letter to the Woman on the Floor Embracing sobriety and dismantling personal obstacles

My latest post on Substack is about the incredible impact that sobriety has had on me, but it applies to any obstacle that's getting in your way.

While on vacation last Thu, I met author Judy Blume at her bookstore in Key West! I purchased a special edition of Are You There God? It’s Me, Margret, and she signed it.

My first official post on Substack!

The real scam: making you fear the “the other” while the rich rob you blind. I wish every American understood this.

Raskin, too!

Trump’s “brain”storms are an embarrassment. Just like during COVID.
