Story Round-Up: Features in The Herald-News, Aug. 29 through Sept. 4

Just had  lovely phone conversation with Sarah, a great way to start a sleepy Friday.

So without further commentary from me, here are some of the stories I wrote this week (not everything is published yet) and all the places I currently hang out on social media.

Have a great Friday!



Non-bylined features:

Search by topic (people, pets, A and E, faith, health, and food) at theherald-news.com.

Once a week, I do combine a week's worth into a single blog post.

Social media:

Daily updates: I do post the briefs on Twitter during the week, so you're welcome to follow me at @Denise_Unland61.

BryonySeries stuff: I post curated content relating to the BryonySeries at @BryonySeries. And assorted related content at www.facebook.com/BryonySeries.

And of course, please follow the adventures of Bertrand the Mouse on Instagram at bertrand_bryonyseries.
