An honor to receive this grant award from CWPA! It was a joy to see and hear from legends and inspirations who paved the way in writing studies for generations at the award’s ceremony tonight.
4,000+ miles in less than 3 weeks with a 7yo, 6yo, 2yo, and 10 month old. Grateful for the opportunity to see family & friends over the summer 🫶

Hattiesburg junior receiver Tristen Keys has committed to LSU.
Keys is the fourth overall player nationally in the class of 2026 according to @247Sports.
This is such an easy question to get right, and Rory swings and misses. Rory was handed the keys to be the brand ambassador and future of golf, and he almost always digs his heels in the sand. Refusing to adapt and connect with Gen Z isn't going to grow the game.
