The remodel of my office is at hand. Under the floorboards* my husband found some 1958 newspapers. So, my question comes from one of them. My question comes, in fact, from the Bellingham Sunday Herald of September 14, 1958.

Who was the NY Yankees catcher-outfielder in 1958? (He was catcher from 1946-1963)

Clue: the catcher-outfielder's name is the same as one of these:

A) a famous cartoon bear
B) a candy bar with a white wrapper
C) a different candy bar with a brown wrapper

*putting up new sheetrock and fixing the floor where it was bi-level. the house was built in 1890 and there are no square walls, even floors or closets. and no, i'm not a huge baseball fan. but if I were, i'd yell GO MARINERS!

For an extra ebook today...ummm...one of mine--your choice of download format--and because it is Independence Day and because I was thinking about "freedom" and what it means to me, who said this:

Freedom doesn’t mean the absence of all restrictions. It means possessing unshakable conviction in the face of any obstacle. This is true freedom.

Thirty-One Days of Darragha

Like most e-authors (and many print-only authors) I have a day job. I'm about to embark on 31 days of V A C A T I O N. I'll be home, working edits on Polishing Saber and Mooncusser Cove, writing The Orca King, II, and outlining my next, which is supposed to be a Terran Realm novel.

Thirty-one days. Thirty-one mini-contests, culminating in one grand prize winner on July 31st.

Look for more information on how to enter on July 1st! By then, I'll have figured out what the grand prize should be, too. :) Any thoughts?
