My husband is balder now, thanks to my love of classic fiction and my inability to keep quiet about it. In an effort to maintain marital peace (and perhaps to keep a few threads of hair attached to his poor head), I decided to start a book discussion group centered on classic novels. The purpose of the group, then, will be to dive into the worlds created by some of history's most famous authors: Steinbeck, Twain, Austin, Dostoevsky, and, of course, Dickens, just to name a few. If you also enj …

The Dickens Chicks book club is all about ladies reading Classic Literature.

We will continue to read the Classics on the last Sunday of each month, but in between those readings, we'll meet again to watch the movies that go along with these …

Great photography begins with careful thought and planning and a thorough understanding of what goes in to making the photograph before the shutter release is clicked. Professional fine art landscape & travel photographer Timm Chapman is of the belief that photography has strayed too far away from the moment of 'capture'  and is becoming more and more 'digital art'. Photographers often spend more time 'creating' and 'fixing' images on a computer than capturing the image in the first place. As a …
