On Retaliation
NOTE: I’m stepping into a potentially dangerous zone of commentary here. The easy thing to do is to hit back. The 2011 Stanley Cup final was a brutal affair that made for great television and drama, even as it threatened to set hockey back 20 years. There was an unpunished incident of one player biting […]
Redirect
Folks, it’s time for another entry in the query critique over at Carrie Pestritto’s blog. Check it out, help a fellow writer out! That’s it for me, I really got nothing else this week. I started a post this morning but never got anywhere, then all day at work ideas were floating around but now […]
