@kristalamb Indeed it does. As does vintage.

@GeckosarahSarah @chefjoseandres We don't normally give tours because our tasting room is 8 miles from the farm. The tasting room is in an old building in the Wharf District of #DowntownStaunton, which is an adorable town in the Shenandoah Valley. Maybe we'll think about an open house at the farm after harvest.

We at #Ox-EyeVineyards were thrilled to learn that @chefjoseandres served our #Riesling to the panel at the #WolfTrap taping of the #NPR radio show #WaitWaitDontTellMe
Thank you, Chef! #VAwine #ShenandoahValleyWine

@Virginia_Made @Forbes @damewine Visited there last November and had a lovely tasting. Excellent wine. Charming host. Beautiful chateaux.

@jstrausberg @waitwait @MeghanFord13 @chefjoseandres Thank you, Jonathan, for your interest in our wine. And thanks for letting us know about this shout out.

@GeckosarahSarah It's #Ox-EyeVineyards Riesling.

[Susan Kiers @SWKiers]

@sarafinn11 @Wendi_Dass1 The feeling is mutual.

[Susan Kiers @SWKiers]

@cliffgarstang Winston-Salem's a great place for a literary gathering.

Haven't tweeted since October. Busy writing magnum opus? Not really, but that's about to change. Getting back with #critiquegroup. #writerslife

How do you deal with writer's block? Tweet to #CracktheBlock

[Susan Kiers @SWKiers]

@CrackedInkPots Doughnuts. Then I take a long walk without my ipod. The walk usually triggers a scene, but I prefer the doughnuts. #writerslife

[Susan Kiers @SWKiers]

@Oxeyedaiseygirl It is special.

[Susan Kiers @SWKiers]

@cliffgarstang Saturday was huge. Sunday quieter. Haven't heard estimates.

[Susan Kiers @SWKiers]

I did! Fun when that happens.

Did you ever create a side-throw-away character that ended up being a major player in the plot?

[Susan Kiers @SWKiers]

@deangloster No, Dean. You're IN heaven.

[Susan Kiers @SWKiers]

@cliffgarstang Don't know, but maybe Lundch, Mike Lund's place?

[Susan Kiers @SWKiers]

Should have bought this decades ago. Pocket T and computer T don't hold a candle to my big, fat RIT. #writerslife

[Susan Kiers @SWKiers]

I'm a #spidersolitare junkie. I can do this.

Struggling with your story’s structure? Put six spaces between each graf and the next one. Print out your story, cut up the grafs, lay them on the floor and play with them, like Solitaire, until you find their natural sequence.

@chipscanlan @sarafinn11 @jcbelardi Thought they were old school.Thought I was old school, too.

[Susan Kiers @SWKiers]

@RichardLPastore Who knew the Depatment of Transportation was run by a gang of MFAs?😂

[Susan Kiers @SWKiers]

Me too. I really, really do.
