The greatest part of traveling is the people I meet. When I was in New York, I met Amy Pedersen, from Atlanta. She’s a writer, I’m a writer, she immediately started telling me all about her brand new product, Slimpressions®, which is underwear.

I wish I was in the Everglades right about now instead of here in extremely cold, more snow expected, Connecticut! One year ago I was the writer-in-residence in the Everglades National Park. There’s a national program that I want everyone to know about. You too can apply and who knows where you could be spending [...]
