1. I read Michael Oher's memoir Beat the Odds, but had not paid much attention to the conservatorship, so was saddened to hear that he feels misled about what that meant for movie rights and such. Along with listening to Sheryl Lee Ralph talking about the small amount she signed over rights to the "Dreamgirls" character she helped create, we really need to take a look at story rights more carefully.
2. Naka Nathaniel talked a little about how water rights on Maui have been leading in the direction of catastrophe for a while.
3. Some senate interns set out to take a selfie with all 100 senators.
Also, the #RomanceForMaui auction blew past it's goal, but some items, including mine are still reasonably priced. I know some kidlist authors are also doing an auction next week, and I'll post about that one too.
