My son is almost a week into his nineteenth month, and — if I could somehow ignore the times when he has scared the ever-loving [redacted] out of me — I am still awestruck at how much I love him. We’re currently reading Across the River and into the Trees, our fourth Hemingway book, at… Read more »

Hemingway Chat
I found an active and lively discussion board dedicated to the author and his works. You can visit this site to get questions answered or just to talk with others about your ideas on particular books or short stories. Nice!
Key West
The Hemingway Days Festival is held every year in Key West, Florida. This web site has all sorts of information about the celebration, as well as links to the Short Story competition and the Hemingway Look-a-Like Society.
