https://writersbridgebridgebuilder.wordpress.com/page/2
A longtime newspaper columnist retires, reinvents himself. Being human has become a firing offense. September 22, 2014. We’ve become a nation of self-righteous scolds, and sometimes it makes me sick. God help anyone in the public eye who reveals some human fraility — a lapse in judgement, a revealed prejudice of some kind, an ill-chosen comment spoken off the cuff. Immediately, the Internet resonates with cries for that person’s head on a plate. Or, failing that, th. So, what’s the deal here? Of course, ...
Trying to make sense of the senseless | Write On
https://writersbridgebridgebuilder.wordpress.com/2015/06/20/trying-to-make-sense-of-the-senseless
A longtime newspaper columnist retires, reinvents himself. Trying to make sense of the senseless. June 20, 2015. Whenever something happens like this week’s mass shooting in a Charleston, SC, church, it is usually described as “unthinkable.” Then we spend a lot of time thinking about it. Such thoughts are comforting, because the alternative — that mass killers are simply a random fact of life, like tornados and plane crashes and great white sharks — is scarier. True, the identity of “them” ma...Moreover,...
A gay time in Lynchburg, VA | Write On
https://writersbridgebridgebuilder.wordpress.com/2014/10/09/a-gay-time-in-lynchburg-va
A longtime newspaper columnist retires, reinvents himself. A gay time in Lynchburg, VA. October 9, 2014. Things change, if you wait long enough. Twenty — or even 10 — years ago, the idea of a same-sex couple applying for a marriage license in Lynchburg, VA would have been unthinkable. Or, if it did happen, it would have been accompanied by a jeering, sign-wielding crowd and, perhaps, the National Guard. This was always a large part of the problem, a social Catch 22. Because being gay usually meant co...
Massaging history | Write On
https://writersbridgebridgebuilder.wordpress.com/2014/10/03/massaging-history
A longtime newspaper columnist retires, reinvents himself. October 3, 2014. True, it’s just one school board in one city. Still, a recent edict handed down by the Jefferson County School Board in Denver has to be more than a little unsettling to those of us who believe that history should adhere to that current popular saying: “It is what it is.”. And not what we would like it to be. So a group of nonconforming students decided to come to school “dressed as famous historical rebels; figures who wer...
Freelancing: You can’t take always it with you | Write On

A longtime newspaper columnist retires, reinvents himself. Freelancing: You can’t take always it with you. December 31, 2014. This guest post is from Barbara Trainin Blank, author of “What to do About Mama: A Guide to Caring for Aging Family Members” and a recently dislocated freelancer. Relocation is Dislocation, but. There’s a Jewish proverb that states: Changing one’s place changes one’s luck with the implication that it’s for the better. So what to do when you get to a new place? 1 Tell everyone you ...

I’m going to include the decade of the Forties in with the decade of the Fifties, primarily because I was too young to really know much about my environment. So, starting with my birth….

Places I’ve Been. 1 – Places I’ve Been – The Fifties. 2 – Places I’ve Been – California in the Fifties. Pursuit of Second Chances. But none of them are available to me now. So I have to deal with everything myself. So I’m dealing with it. And while most of the time, I fear I can’t handle it, I am finding that I can. Not well. Not completely. But certainly not by running away and hiding. This entry was posted in Uncategorized. Everybody’s a Winner. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here.

Unfortunately, when I got dressed today, I didn’t put on anything green. I was feeling guilty about this, began to wonder if I could lie and tell everyone I was wearing green panties (knickers for the Irish), then I realized that today isn’t really St. Patrick’s Day! Talk about the luck of the non-Irish! Is it any wonder I dread holidays? They say...

Damn, this body is not as good as it was straight out of the factory! Aches, pains, too much baggage in the boot, it all tells us that entropy is at work.

The Writers' Bridge - Home
A World of Ideas. It's a rare freelance writer who hasn't wished for a clone. Between coming up with fresh ideas, finding markets, sending out killer query letters and, in many cases, dealing with a full-time job and/or a family, there simply isn't enough time to get the most out of freelancing. In the process, we reject the same old tired article ideas, refuse to use the word "rejection" and firmly believe that there's a home for every fresh idea. Let us clone you!

Writers' (and Readers') Brigades. Where writers help teachers read students' work. October 17, 2012. Please help get this started…. This site grew out of an idea that sprouted Sept 26.

The Passionate Writer's Broken Corner
The Passionate Writer's Broken Corner. Friday, June 10, 2011. It has been a while… Some things that have happened over the past few months certainly are regretted… I lost some really good friends to something absolutely ridiculous and found out who my real ones are. Plus, I learned that things aren't always going to be cotton candy clouds and gumdrop trees and all that in relationships…quite a few times on that one. That's the class I don't want to end! Off to writing the Shakespeare paper, since I feel ...

The answer is, no one: any character could be the hero – Balusamy, Yemalingam or even Shaam or Kuyili. Every character is portrayed as a hero in their own rights and unique ways.
