Appreciative of review on Blacklist of my draft screenplay, Pay Dirt: "Pay Dirt" stands out for its intriguing and topical premise, which grows more relevant by the day. Representation for an albino like Innocent as a real, respected character is rare and appreciated."

On the side, I’m raising #oysters on the #Chesapeake. I'm doing it for my stomach, and for the #environment. I’m four months into an 18-24 month cycle. There are many lessons learned along the way. Check them out in my LinkedIn post: linkedin.com/in/dan-a-morris…

Love Ginna Richards' work using wet-plate collodion photos to unearth the forgotten history of the Inner Passage -- a 300-mile waterway from #Charleston to St. Augustine which #slaves dug by hand through cypress swamps, marsh and mud. carolinaalumnireview.com/car…

I went to #Alaska to do a cross-country ski #marathon and ended up working as a dog handler in the #Iditarod. I guess I was somehow channeling my inner #JackLondon or #RobertService. This, in turn, offered lessons I hadn’t expected.

Loving this review of Backpacks & Baguettes: "My 7 year old ... devoured it! The premise is unique- travel through the eyes of a child. It’s wonderful to share the experience of venturing to far away places - especially since we can’t do any real traveling during COVID."

Great write up of friend, Rhett Rebold, and his post-Cold War life. If you are in Virginia Beach, check out Vibrant Shores Brewery in the Vibe District.

So this was the message in my #fortunecookie last night. Unclear how I should interpret it. A signal from afar for a sartorial change, or the product of a fortune cookie writer with no more poetry? Deep waters.
