Why couldn't I have a useful talent, with numbers in it?
I want this for my tag, erika. Badly. Please?

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

One of those personal essay things. Which is to say, somewhere in the middle.Beverly, yes, of course. Anyone can tag me, anytime. And somebody who compliments my Kay can do it twice. Like voting in Chicago.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

If you sold it once, you can sell it again.

I suppose. If I let go of the idea that it was a fluke, and stuff. But it's kind of specific. But there are a few other angles I could write it from, I guess, if I needed to.

No such thing as a fluke.

Thanks, erika.
I just had a small kerfuffle with my writing group. I've been wanting to bow out , at least temporarily, for a while now. When I announced my intention to do so, I got nearly mugged.
I'm not writing. I haven't been writing. It feels like I'll never write again. I feel like a slimy fraud showing up at meetings, even when I'm line-editing and critiquing for others. I thought some time off might help, but they're telling me breaking that last commitment will somehow give me permission to give up entirely.
I'm just tired.

Well, you know...but okay, I'll keep that in mind. The funniest part of the movie "Adaptation" for me was that established writer went through the "I'm ugly and can't write" thing too. I loved that movie.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Nope, no such thing as a fluke, Victor's quite right.

I liked "Adaptation" when I first watched it, but the more I think about it, the more brilliant I find it.
Kind of like Pringles.

Beverly, it's not their place to make that decision for you. If leaving is what feels right at this time, then do so. Don't let them bully you into staying if you don't want to.
