Karl Breckenridge

I like to write stuff, either about my lifelong town of Reno, or its residents, or San Francisco, where, like Tony Bennett, I left my heart, so therefore go back and visit it every couple months

I'm not trying to make the most popular blog on the web; rather, I do it for fun and if someone enjoys it, all's the better - I don't plug it anywhere so it's mostly word-of-mouth

I wrote a weekly column in the Reno newspaper for 19 years and had a lot of fun, and hopefully never hurt anyone when having such fun. I wrote three business books, one of which wound up on the Chicago Tribune's best-seller list for one - count 'em - whole - week. And another with 63 of the columns I wrote in the local paper - there's about 5,000 of those books out there somewhere. As I said, I enjoy writing. (Doesn't mean I'm a good writer, just a happy one!)
