avengin’ the writers!

This year I was tortured, beaten and blackmailed and began volunteering for a writers organization on Bainbridge called Field’s End. It’s for a good cause, as they say (if you’re going to write, doing it better would be nice for the rest of us).

I’ve been lost. Adrift at sea. Okay, at home.
My Toshiba laptop hates me, became possessed had to go to the shop.
Since it was less than three years old and practically obsolescent still under warranty, the Geek Squad is fixing it holding it until I break out in hives sending it out [...]
