Defining Between The Lines
Don’t you just love it when you sit down with your coffee on a Sunday morning and begin reading and the story you read not only entertains, but it also lights that little writing fire under your ass? It’s a writer’s dream to be inspired like that and today, Pierce McIntyre did that for me.

So it’s really no surprise that a story about the 10 television shows that helped shape someone’s life, followed by a prompt to respond in kind would get my noggin churning. It might do the same for you, so here’s his piece. I highly recommend it as an entertaining read:

I was born in 1971 and really came of age in the 80s. As many of you know, I was (I guess I still am) a white-looking biracial kid, raised in a Black home. I was also a sorta cute, embarrassingly innocent, nerd to the max (shameless 80s reference alert).
