I seem to have begun a new adventure in writing: life as a political columnist. For the last month and a half, I have been writing articles on almost a weekly basis for The Insider, for People Sheltering in Place. Now I am embarking on a bi-weekly column for The Insider, called “Washington Whispers.” Here are links to my articles so far:

This adventure began with an opinion I posted on Facebook finding fault with Bob Woodward’s timing for releasing his Trump tapes. An old high school friend, who had developed a long career as an established journalist and editor took issue with my view and I sent her an email discussing further. It turned out that she runs The Insider, for People Sheltering in Place; she asked me to turn my thoughts into an article; and we have been off and running ever since!
Talk about serendipity!
