Today is
Melissa McEwan's birthday. She's also known as Shakespeare's Sister, an online nickname that speaks to the stunning prose she is able to produce.
Melissa runs just about the best blog around, with good writers, lots of points of view, and the opportunity for their readers to learn something important every single day, with chances to take action as well.
And she is a friend, not through any special effort on my part, but because that is Melissa's character.
Happy Birthday, Lissie!
