 Ken Follett’s Writing POV or Point of View made me stop and think about my writing POV and process. His words could also be applied to developing a project. “The research is the easiest. The outline is the most fun. The first draft is the hardest, because every word of the outline has to be…

 I Know Just What You Mean: The Power of Friendship in Women’s Lives written by Ellen Goodman and Patricia O’Brien is one of my favorite books This morning, while I was driving out of my neighborhood I spotted my friend and neighbor Ellen Day at the end of her driveway collecting her empty garbage cans.…
