I would read your "Everything I Know about Writing I Learned from the Beatles"! It can veer fan fiction, memoir, so many directions.

Pronounced “Iggles” for those of us always-Philadelphians. ❤️

Ah yes. The Beatles and football, two subjects I was lucky enough to discuss with my father before his death: John was going to be his son-in-law and television announcers suck so listen to the radio whilst spectating.

Maybe you should think of today's activities as a Rihanna concert, the first in seven years?

That is a great idea. A Rihanna concert with some noise before and after.

I think that book sounds like a definite bestseller (at least in a fictional probably dystopian world where if I like it, it’s a bestseller!). Really, you must find a way to write a fictional character on tour with them. I’d like to read that this afternoon please.

Well, that’s no fun. I can’t get it to paste in. It’s a photo of a little girl with her fingers in her mouth, standing about 2 in. from a black

and white TV showing the Beatles on Ed Sullivan.

sounds just right though. That was me, arguing with my brother about which was Paul and which John.

This picture (from the internet) says everything to me about those few days in February 1964.

Alice, Paul was my choice. Heaven on the radio. I watched the Beatles on Ed at 15, and I was in love with love, even if love was in black and white. Thank you for your blog and writing insights, and just plain chatting.
