Healing hunger for the holidays — MC Reality Readers annual fundraising for All Faiths Food Bank
Since 2006, readers of my “reality” columns, op/ed essays in papers, and of this blog, have been kindly and generously donating to my annual fundraising drive to benefit All Faiths Food Bank.

Heat Bomb to Explode in Sarasota …MC Coolidge launches new print column!
What’s black and white and read all over? I sure HOPE it’s my new column! After something like two and a half years — TWO AND A HALF YEARS, folks! — I’ve finally landed a regular print gig again. I can’t believe it. But here’s the proof: Heat Bomb to Explode in Sarasota

Allegations of fraud, malfeasance, a morass of contradicting finger-pointing … all reveal a kind of stomach-turning nostalgie […]
Nancy Feehan’s Major Mojo — it’s going to take her from Siesta to the State House
Tonight I co-hosted a get-together at the Old Salty Dog on Siesta Key — with Gene Jones, President of the Florida Veterans for Common Sense organization. It was a “Meet & Greet” event for State House District 70 candidate Nancy Feehan.
