http://lindazajac.blogspot.com/2015/02/6301990-172015-normal-0-false-false.html

Thursday, February 5, 2015. A Tribute to Daniel. This year has been a painful one. When I. Wake up in the morning or in the middle of the night, my thoughts echo like the clanging of a hollow pipe or a church bell ringing in an empty village. Dan Dan. Dan. Dan. Dan. Dan. I’m dedicating this post to my 24-year-old son. When Dan and his twin sister, Melanie, came into our lives, we were joyous. Having them to love was a gift. We felt lucky—really lucky. He spent a month in the hospital. He never dwelled on...

Linda Zajac: NESCBWI 2015

http://lindazajac.blogspot.com/2015/04/nescbwi-2015.html

Thursday, April 30, 2015. My fabulous writing friends, Daryl and Natasha. This past weekend I attended the New England SCBWI. My friends don't like to be photographed, so I secretly photographed them from above- until they caught me. Jo Knowles got a rock star reception when she entered the ballroom. I responded to a misleading piece that insinuated that this winter's snow meant there was no warming. This past month, I fired off a couple of letters. Posted by Linda Zajac.

Linda Zajac: CLIMATE CHANGE

http://lindazajac.blogspot.com/2008/01/hartford-courant-had-really-great.html

Monday, January 7, 2008. 971% of ALL climate research papers that take a position on the cause of climate change point to anthropogenic. Only a wee fraction. Of those that take a position on the cause of climate change believe it is NOT anthropogenic. As expected many climate papers discuss the results of some study and don't say one way or the other because that is not the subject of the paper. Only 32.6% of all the research papers reviewed take a position. Graph of climate and Earth scientist's opinions.

Linda Zajac: Cinque Terre, Italy

http://lindazajac.blogspot.com/2015/07/monterosso-viewed-from-508-gathering.html

Friday, July 10, 2015. Cinque Terre, Italy. Monterosso viewed from the 508. This is a hike I did while staying in Vernazza in the Cinque Terre. In Italy. These five villages nestled on hills by the coast and connected by a rail line, have narrow cobbled streets and old world charm. The people were warm and pleasant. This was an interesting way of remembering the dead. What an anniversary celebration! Narrow streets in the villages. I believe I took this on the popular blue trail from Vernazza to Corniglia.
