Sent Francine proofs for Four for the Gospel Makers. Jenny Bent Agency in Brooklyn asks to see The Falls of the Wyona.

Longest run of modern times on the cross-trainer: 4 miles. I was engrossed in reading The Crock of Gold.

DJ swerved his car in front of me returning to the alley after drinks at the Usual. He had seen three bears, probably a sow and two cubs. Motion-detecting lights went on in backyards, but I didn’t see the bears, even when the reportedly crossed the alley again. I am he who never sees the bears. But they were on my mind when I went out in the rainy dark to prepare for trash pick up. My eyes were extra wide, my ears pricked.
