Odds and Ends

Jewish holidays all start at Sundown, so tonight is the first night of Hanukkah. For those who celebrate the holiday, have a wonderful week.

Yesterday, Amazon.com finally showed When Danger Calls as 'available now'. It's been a long time coming.

And, since one of the joys of the season is watching the delight of children, here's a writing quote for the day.

Reading good writers will help you pay attention to detail: the way gestures reveal true emotions, the dialogue of people around you, the way an event unfolds in your life, in others' lives. Pay attention to the world around you with intense interest. ...When you begin to pay attention in this way, you'll find ways of being amazed again--feeling the kind of discovery in everyday life the way a child does. You'll never be bored.
