Urf!: July 2013
http://uurrff.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 18, 2013. Steve McQueen in Bullitt. I can remember first learning to drive, slipping behind the wheel of my dad's sleek, new, charcoal gray Camaro Z28 with its T-tops and fat tires. It was a fast car and I'm pretty sure my little sisters were both in the backseat for that inaugural drive. I can't remember where I drove or for how long that first time. I only remember one thing: it was fast. Today's "Because I Said So" column. In The Commercial Appeal. I recently drove my 15-year-old son to...

Urf!: Believe Memphis
http://uurrff.blogspot.com/2013/05/believe-memphis.html
Friday, May 24, 2013. This week's "Because I Said So" column. Is all heart. Believe it. Good seats still available on 'Believe Memphis' bandwagon. I was born and raised in Memphis, weaned during the 1970s on a steady stream of negativity flowing through a city whose dreams had slipped into the river and whose borders had become porous. Everyone, it seemed, wanted out. The grass must have looked greener in the next county over, a neighboring city, any other state. Labels: because i said so. Im a writer, s...

http://uurrff.blogspot.com/2013/05/a-syllabus-for-summer-vacations-to.html
Wednesday, May 22, 2013. A syllabus for summer vacations to remember. This "Because I Said So" column first ran in The Commercial Appeal. On May 26, 2011. A syllabus for summer vacations to remember. Another school year has come to an end. If yours was anything like ours, the year was one of ups and downs, overall good grades, some conduct issues, large and involved projects and plenty of homework. School days are, by necessity, rigid in their schedules and run smoothly because of their rules. View my co...

Urf!: 5 Years of Saying So
http://uurrff.blogspot.com/2013/04/5-years-of-saying-so.html
Wednesday, April 17, 2013. 5 Years of Saying So. In the spring of 2008, at a time when I was pulling my hair out over the willfulness of a 2-year-old and with running my own business, I was asked by Stacey Greenberg if I'd like to alternate Thursdays with her writing a column for The Commercial Appeal. About what it's like to raise kids in Memphis. I had been writing about my kids on this very blog for two years already so I said, "Sure, why not.". And I answer, "Children? On April 17, 2008. It was the 1...

Urf!: The story of a fiction
http://uurrff.blogspot.com/2012/06/story-of-fiction.html
Tuesday, June 26, 2012. The story of a fiction. Warning: spoiler alert. Subtle though they are, there are characteristics of character and story here that I believe the author meant to be revealed slowly as a part of plot and structure. To make a point later on, I reveal a bit of that here.). THE STORY OF A MARRIAGE by Andrew Sean Greer (Picador, 2008). So, how to categorize THE STORY OF A MARRIAGE? THE STORY OF A MARRIAGE is a book about love and hope and fear and loneliness and happiness, just as that ...
