Fireside Chats - 2021. "Keep your thermostat at 65 during the day and learn to live thriftily --- sacrifice, don't drive as much, use an extra blanket, walk more and together we'll find ways to get by."

Why #Storytelling Beats #Statistics, But Only 100% Of The Time. Quoting numbers is easy. But knowledge of numbers doesn’t change #behavior - not even your own. Don’t misunderstand - people want to know what others are doing, saying, #feeling and observing.

Are #Novels Trapped by the #Present? How do you write a novel that doesn’t go stale by the next #election? Novels reflect their time; a good one is not a transcription of a #historical moment but ... a particular person thinking and living through it.

Every day more than 1.8 million #books are sold in the US and a half a million in the UK. Despite endless distractions, there’s no doubt that people still love #reading. Books can #teach us about the world --- But can #fiction also make us better people? https://t.co/VAo3htSCgX

Where there is #wine, #art and #literature will follow~ #civilization arose around the world in latitudes where wine grapes flourish. It did not emerge where grapes do not grow.

The profane #hashtag is classless, but I'm glad to learn that this is a #political establishment and not a #restaurant. I thought you just served #food. This is bad form and a really bad #business decision. Your #extremism has now undermined your #menu.
