Forward Into the Past …!

Isn’t history fascinating?

Would you believe that back in my freelance writing days I used to write case studies of advertising campaigns? It’s true. I used to call lots of corporate librarians and gather information about their employers. And write it up in summary form for an encyclopedia of ad campaigns.

This is what eventually led to my decision to get a degree in library science. That was in 2000. I graduated in 2002, with a perfect 4.0 average, not that it matters much. It’s just a weird fact about me.

I was going to do a whole series of posts on antitrust law, because it has an interesting history and seems to be coming back as a thing.

But, in my preliminary research, I found this:

 Ahem! Ahem! Ahem! *cough* *cough* *cough*

PS: Happy birthday, America! And thanks for the First Amendment!

My Book Review of ‘Direct’

09/20/2022 by Debbi

Hi! Today, I’m reviewing Direct. I’m just gonna go ahead and tell you about this book in general, because I didn’t read it entirely from front to back all the way through, because essentially it’s preaching to the choir at this point.

Hi everyone. Well, I, this weekend I just had to kind of shut myself down a little bit. I mean, I actually went online both Saturday and Sunday. Sunday, it’s like, I started to think, what am I doing? What am I doing to myself? I’m going online every single day doing stuff. And I, I don’t think it’s good for me to do that. So I am seriously, seriously thinking of taking a break either on weekends or just one day of the weekend from all online activity. Seriously. I’m, I’m just really starting to think about that. Except maybe Duolingo. <Laugh> I like keeping up my, I know it’s an algorithm, but you know, I can’t help myself. Yeah. I’m addicted. That’s what happens. You become addicted to this stuff and it’s like, you have to do it or you feel like, oh, you know, I haven’t done something that I should. No, you don’t have to.

Meet Debbi

Welcome to my writers' corner of the Internet. I'm a novelist, who also writes short stories and screenplays.

I hope to share that knowledge with you.
