Recently, I wrote that if corporations are people, they need to be better Americans. (blog 8/15/14)  They need to pay their taxes, for example.  Allan Sloan’s new article in Fortune explains one way some companies are shirking their duty.  (“Positively Un-American,” by Allan

While I cling to my hope of finding a big agent for my 4th novel, I know the trend is against me.  Self-publishing is becoming so acceptable, that big publishers are getting into the business.  Even the New York Times Bestseller list includes self-published authors, something that w

I sat down to lunch with a former student recently.   He’s now a tenured English professor at a major university, so we fell into a discussion about how digital communication is transforming our language.  After we’d finished our quiches and said our goodbyes,  I came home com

I’ve just finished an article in Harper’s about life coaches. Though largely unschooled and uncredentialed, these people make a living as cheerleaders for those who can afford to pay.  Their role is to tell strangers how to live their lives.  Nice work if you can get it. (“50,

I shocked a few friends when I announced that I’d sold my home and would be moving into a retirement center.  They weren’t surprised because they thought I was too young.  My grey hair and sagging jowls say otherwise.  So why the eyebrows lifted to form a question?  I suspect

A few days after I published my blog, The Intentional Fallacy, (blog 8/8/14), a friend sent me a page from the Sunday edition of the New York Times Book Review. (July 29, pg. 31.)  It contained two articles, one by Thomas Mallon and the other by Adam Kirsch, each taking different vie
