Anthony Rinaldo is what I call a true pal. He is the kind of person that will share anything and everything with you. He is a giving soul that expects nothing in return. Several years ago he involved me in a film project called The Bottom of the Ninth which starred Sophia Vergara and Mike […]

Popular Movies You Didn’t Know Were Based on Books
It’s always interesting to see if the movie version of a book is actually better than the book itself. So here’s a handy list of fan-favorite movies that were actually based on books for you to check out! Gonna go out on a limb here and say that most people probably don’t know that these movies have literary origins because the film versions are just as good, if not better!
Harrison Bader wants to give to New York on and off the field!

You’re Sitting on Gold If You Own Any of These Books
The First Folio is a collection of 23 plays by William Shakespeare, including The Tempest, Much Ado About Nothing, and Romeo and Juliet. It was first published under the original title Mr. William Shakespeare’s Comedies, Histories, & Tragedies. It is credited with ensuring that his plays continue to be performed today. It was first published in 1623, seven years after the famous playwright passed away. Shakespeare’s plays might have been lost forever if not for it. First Folio was auctioned off in 2006 at Sotheby’s in New York for $5.2 million (roughly $6.3 million today). You could make a lot of money if any of these things are collecting dust in your attic.

Mrs. Munson supports Judge as the next great Yanks Captain
Diana Munson has always loved the Yankees. Knowing her for almost 50 years I would have to say that her love for the team was almost as strong as her wonderful husband, Thurman Munson. Thurman was named the first Yanks Captain since Lou Gehrig in 1976, even though he argued with George Steinbrenner that he […]

The shelters of New York City are filled up. With migrants coming into the city every day available space has run out. Whether it’s a shelter, a hotel or a motel there is no room in the inn for a homeless person with an animal. In the last week I have seen 4 men and […]
Why the Aspiring Author Should Consider Getting a Ghostwriter
Have you ever had a million-dollar idea? Maybe it was for an invention that you think could change the world, or maybe it was some revolutionary system for something that could make people’s lives easier. Or perhaps, that million-dollar idea is for a book- a story waiting to happen- all you need are the words. Well, what if I told you there’s a service for turning those million-dollar-book ideas into a reality? Ghostwriting is a service that is steadily becoming more popular among aspiring authors because it allows authors to write their stories without ever writing down a single word. Ghostwriters meet with these aspiring authors and discuss their ideas for their stories; then they get to work writing them. It’s a very interesting process, but its hands-off nature often puts people on edge about the possibilities of concept theft and poor writing. I’m here today to tell you a little more about this process and to hopefully put your creative minds at ease.

Why Kids Should Be Reading for Fun Again
According to a 2019 survey conducted by the National Assessment of Educational Progress, fewer American children than ever before are reading for fun. The shares of 9-to13-year-olds who say they read for fun on an almost daily basis have dropped from nearly a decade ago, and are at the lowest levels since the question was first asked in 1984. That’s a problem. See, reading is more than just a fun escape into a different world; the act of reading helps form strong neural pathways in our brains that build the vital language, literacy, and emotional skills that grant us lifelong benefits. These are especially important in a child’s development, and it’s why I believe that more kids need to read for fun again.
