[Spotlight Post] A Follow Spot Post of Several People
It’s a Spotlight Friday… and this has been a strange week, so I think I’m going to do a “shotgun†spotlight post and do shout outs to a several people – most of whom have been in a spotlight before but have my attention at the moment. Congratulations to Rachel Caine for the successful completion […]
[Pen/Pencil Review] The SolidLine Detachable iPad Keyboard/Case
This week’s pen/pencil review isn’t exactly a writing instrument – though it’s a tool for writing. So it…sort of…applies. I’m reviewing the SolidLine Bluetooth keyboard for the full size iPad.

This week I’m featuring an artist is […]

Also… a challenge has been thrown by author, Lou Antonelli, to find The BIC BRIO fine point (orange/yellow) barrel GREEN […]
