The holiday season is upon us, the season of guilt and shame for people struggling with alcohol and drug addiction. For Vineyarders who have had enough, here are some simple directions that might help.
At a recent event at the Katharine Cornell Theatre I was crowned Martha’s Vineyard poet laureate, succeeding Lee McCormack. I was given a two-year term, a plastic laurel wreath and a toga.

Living on the Vineyard provides a front-row seat to a panorama of the constantly changing environs. There are parts of the country where these differences are a bit less apparent.
The wind, when it decides to blow, may be free, but turning it into electricity is very expensive.
