"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

That's very exciting news, Allyson. Yay!

In other good news, I (a) had a very productive writing day and (b) I got an email from the editor of the Oxford American asking me to pitch a short piece on something I love about the South. An Ode to _______ something. And they pay money for that.

So what do I want to write about?

Possible subjects...

RC Cola
Cicadas
Scrub Pine
Faulknerian Family Histories
Beauty Salons
Humidity
Pickup Truck Mischief
William Eggleston
Tav Falco's Panther Burns
Coral Rock
Creeks
Tadpoles

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Beauty Salons

Could there *be* any other topic?

Though I'd like to read your take on Faulknerian family histories. And creeks.

I give pause when the sweep of the searchlight from the police helicopter illuminates my apartment.

Hey, ita? You got that too? I've got fires AND police helicopters! Don't you love our neighborhoods?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Cmon, I need some more southern subjects!

Get your brainstorm on.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
