If you heard a loud thump from Downtown Las Vegas, don’t worry. It was just me.
I fell off the daily writing rhythm for a bit. The last several days have been a remarkable whirlwind as the construction project to expand The Hydrant...
It was unexpected. That I would come to Vegas at all on my own volition in and of itself was an unusual thing. That I chose to do so in the summer, which is akin to stepping onto the surface of the sun, was downright...
