I’m a writer. I can say that now. I’ve written four fiction books and one academic textbook with my colleagues. It annoys me when people say they are writers when they are not.

Friday Fashion: The Commitment to Add More Color to My Wardrobe
*** Writers wear black. Lots of it. It’s kind of funny, actually, that as a lot, we’ve sort of taken this color and decided to claim it as our own. I’m not sure how this got started, perhaps because as a group we’re sort of identified as a deep-thinking with a dark side. But I…

Milne, and what happened after he created that lovable Winnie-the-Pooh character, along with Christopher Robin, who was based…
