This Week's Writing 9/28/24

Mark Robinson may lose NC for the GOP, and more!

Thanks to all who became paid subs during the sale this week! I am empowered to scribble for another month!

As always, if you are not a paid subscriber, but like my writing, consider coming on board? Even without the sale, it is pretty cheap; $50/year, $5/month. Your dollars help feed the kitties; they are grateful also!

And here’s what I published this week.
