Some have asked me to respond to today’s Carson Wentz story.

I don’t typically comment on other reporter’s stories on the #Eagles beat and won’t here.

But I will offer some reporting I’ve done on Wentz’s personality the last year, which I hope accurately captured his nature ...
From April: Will Carson Wentz alter his aggressive style as he returns from knee surgery? Frank Reich, who had his battles with the #Eagles QB, and others weigh in: philly.com/philly/sports/…
From Sept: “Carson Wentz’s Comeback. The long, arduous road for the Type-A #Eagles QB who had to surrender his will to outside forces: philly.com/philly/sports/…
From Sept: Carson Wentz’s return is complete and the headstrong #Eagles QB is already onto his next challenge: philly.com/philly/sports/…
From Dec: Comforting Carson Wentz. How the #Eagles are juggling the situation with their franchise QB and Nick Foles: philly.com/eagles/carson-…
And from last week: Carson Wentz has a lot to prove - and the #Eagles QB knows it and embraces it: philly.com/sixers/eagles-…

Today's #TenThings will be TEN THINGS ABOUT YOUR FIRST DRAFT. Because first drafts aren't always what they seem, but you can't know that until you've finished one. I would say it's like climbing your first mountain-- but I've never actually climbed a mountain.
The usual disclaimer: YMMV, my way is not the only way, every journey is different. This advice is aimed at new writers who haven't completed a first draft and who wish to be traditionally published. Whatever works for you is your process, but this is what worked for me.
1. A first draft is NOT a finished book. It may not look or read like a finished book. It may have gaps, inconsistencies, a rushed end, or an awkward beginning. THAT'S NORMAL. You don't have to show it to anyone. If writing advice says your 1st draft *should* be perfect, it lies.

Today's #TenThings will be about WRITING SHORT STORIES. Please remember: YMMV, my way is not the only way, every journey is different, and there will always be outliers. And, y'know, it's only ten things, not a comprehensive guide. So, here we go!
1. Know that short stories are an entirely different skill set from writing a novel. You may excel at one or both, but wanting to write books does not doom you to writing short stories. Or, if you're great at short stories, you do not owe anyone a novel. Both are valid media!
2. I say this because often, querying writers who aren't getting requests for their novel will think, "I just need to pad my query with short story credentials. That'll open doors!" Only... it's really hard to sell short stories, and the query and novel must still be compelling.

#Today's story to #EndFamilySeparation Four months ago, Dad and 4-month-old entered at the Texas/Mexico border and requested #asylum. Dad and child were immediately separated and the baby put in ORR custody. #FamiliesBelongTogether
Dad was detained in a #Texas detention center where @RAICESTEXAS consulted. Dad accepted a deportation to be quickly reunited w/ his infant child. However, the Dad was deported & NOT his child. The now 8-month-old baby has been in ORR custody for 4 months. #EndFamilySeparation
The Mom and Dad now have once weekly Skype calls with their 8-month-old baby. That's right, folks. They Skype with an infant. #EndFamilySeparation #FamiliesBelongTogether

Today seems to be an appropriate day to share one of my worst SARS stories.

Happened in Ijebu-Ode, Ogun state when I was still in school (OOU). I could have died that day but thank God. I have had so many encounters with them but this was the craziest. #EndSARS
I was living with my friend & his mum in Ijebu Ode. That Saturday morning, she asked us to take her car, buy fuel for the generator, go to the market and buy ingredients for soup. Off we went, two young boys in a Honda Civic, playing music and nodding our heads. #EndSARS
We decide to map the journey, so we said fuel first, then market afterwards. On Lagos Garage road in Ijebu Ode, we drove into a Total filling station. Just as we parked at the closest dispenser. We had not even stopped the engine, a Golf car crossed us. #EndSARS

Shot 1 - Wentz to Mack Hollins. 3-level stretch concept. Ball traveled 62.8 yards in the air (per @MattHarmon_BYB). Beat Quarters safety
Shot 2 - Great ball from Wentz here. Reads safety jumping shallow cross, throws Ertz open into the void. Great touch & poise vs blitz
Shot 3 - Ertz TD off rub concept starts w/ great communication from entire O. 2 players in motion, everyone had to stop pre-snap. Saves play
