"The most significant thing about me,
"Is not me at all."
This is a line from a poem by WriteOn Joliet co-leader Tom Hernandez.
So today, in addition to a couple postings from The Herald-News, I'm sharing some good blog posts (and two book recommendations) from local authors.
Most of these posts are not recent at all. But the downside, sometimes, to blogs, news pieces, and items we read online, is that they are read today, enjoyed, and then forgotten by tomorrow.
If you've read them after the authors first posted them, enjoy them again. If you've not read them, here's what you missed.
Happy reading!
PS: If you live within the Herald-News' coverage area (most of Will and Grundy counties in Illinois), and you'd like to share your organization's news or upcoming events, email the information to new@theherald-news.com.
