Scott’s Family Restaurant

1906 Blairs Ferry Rd NE, Cedar Rapids

News

Essays by Robert Louis Stevenson recently turned up, after being unseen for 120 years or more.  It makes you wonder whether in 2130 someone will discover an unfinished Nyx 17, Mattais’ Grandchildren, or Fangs 7 manuscript.

 Victories

Dylan got another commission.

Education

An interesting lecture by Gary Lutz is on line.  After some personal background, he discusses what makes interesting sentences.  He finds a lot of depth in simple words.

Ciuin discussed a book called It Was the Best of Sentences, It Was the Worst of Sentences that gives humorous-by-exaggeration examples, to make you more aware of the subtle problems you might be having.
