Good Timing, Or What?

Recently, I sent out press releases on the blogbook that I'm creating about the Mississippi Delta and the 1955 murder of 14-year-old Chicagoan Emmett Till. As a result, I was invited to be interviewed for an hour by Ron Herd of Memphis who operates a well-known live podcast through All Channels (sorry, I'm just learning these terms). He did an amazing amount of pre-publicity and I've been happy with the results.

Yesterday, I learned of a horror story in the Delta regarding a black… Continue

#1: WANT TO RECOGNIZE YOUR SOUL MATE WHEN YOU FIND THEM?

What every person seeks, searches, aches and yearns for… is to fall in love. To REALLY fall in love. To find that special ‘someone’ who sees, knows, accepts and loves them in a profound way and be able to give the same in return. We have been told that that incredibly heady and highly desirable experience and feeling, is NOT real and is only fleeting infatuation. But the truth is it is that this experience is the ONLY thing that IS real. It is the moment in which we see and reflect the highest… Continue

"The Mango Tree Cafe, Loi Kroh Road" - A Combo Platter of WALLY LAMB and JOSEPH CAMPBELL - A Review by Jane Genova

There's a warning in 12-step programs, whose members are notorious for running away: Where you go, you bring yourself. A card-carrying member of diverse versions of those programs and plenty cynical since I am a serial runaway I expected that to be the theme of "The Mango Tree Cafe." It wasn't. Actually, it was a combo platter of Wally Lamb and Joseph Campbell.

Winner of the… Continue
