The Goods: Film ReviewsHey all. I wondered if I was jinxing myself when I posted a bit of celebration at my writing endurance not too long ago. I immediately hit some writers block then went on a family vacation. While on that vacation, we went on a hike, and my father had a heart attack and passed away. So now I am grieving and dealing with all of the life challenges and tasks that involves. I will be back, but it might take a couple weeks, or maybe I’ll sneak in a review or two as distraction.
