Genocide by poverty

The richest 400 Americans are now worth over $2 trillions 

a typical middle class family ...at or below the poverty line
...no developed country has a higher percentage of kids in poverty 
than we do...
Yet the House of Representatives has just cut food stamps 
for people who don’t have enough money to feed themselves.

The Center for Fiction

The Center for Fiction, a great place in Manhattan and online for writers and readers.
Also, "the only nonprofit literary organization in the U.S. To sign up for their blog newsletter is free and and updates include presentations, grants, classes, reading groups and programs for kids. They also "recognize the best in the world of fiction through our annual awards" and have a rare book shops. 
By the way, I posted one of my favorite books on writing and life: Roger Rosenblatt's "Unless It Moves The Human Heart". Have a moving day!
