August’s Of Recent Note is upon us. This month, we are handing over an inordinate level of control. The theme is: “The Hot _______ of the Summer” Meaning: First you fill in the blank, and then write about the thing that you think deserves the most buzz of the season. Is it the Hot Jam of the Summer? The Hot Flick of the Summer? The Hot Dish of the Summer? It’s the hot whatever you think should get some attention for the heat it's generated. So name your topic for this summer's must-have/see/do/watch/listen/eat/drink/be merry item, and then tell us about it, in about 150 words. Send your items to bridget@themorningnews.org by Tuesday, Aug. 26, end of day, Eastern summer time. (Please include a link to your web site or wherever it is you want people to go upon clicking your name.)
