More stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.
- Steven Pressfield on David Baldacci's "all is lost" moment.
- Why teens are suddenly obsessed with chess. There's hope for the next generation! (HT Newmark's Door)
- How the writers strike could affect everything you watch. The Writers Guild went on strike at midnight but since I only watch sports - I'm not affected.
Not a single reference in the chess article to the global phenomenon which is Andrew Tate….
