Great! The book on poetical forms is supposed to arrive between Friday and Monday, so I'll probably start around then. I'm looking forward to seeing people's drabbles, too!
Don't you just love this party? Everything's so fancy, and there's some kind of hot cheese over there.

I can try, though somebody else just passed on my book, so I'm not so sure that anyone wants to read anything of mine, ever. I'm not sure they ever have.(That urge that people had to put things in with the manuscript to see if they get disrupted? Makes even more sense in the age of the e-mail form letter, although I don't know how someone would do that, but I don't even feel like anyone looks at all the painstaking...homework they make me compile. But they all wish me good luck with lots of exclamations, which totally mitigates the sense that my creative work is about to join my actual life as The Southwest's greatest dead end, so, yay for that!

I actually just finished writing a chapter! I decided to put everything else aside tonight and treat myself to a little writing.

Our wings are not tired.
Yes, you should do that more often!

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.
I committed writing, on the death of a colleague who was not all one thing: [link]
It still feels pretty incoherent in my head. I hope it's less so on the screen/page.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Seems clear to me, Karl. And truly compassionate.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Very clear. And more compassion than he extended, it seems.

It looks like the narrator for my audiobook might be able to start recording again after having to take a year break for medical issues. It might actually happen at some point.

Need some thoughts about how to give a sense of time passing in a short story where you have limited pages to work with. Because I paid "Masters' Review" for extra feedback(So far, I think the notes are helpful, in that this editor does seem to get what I'm after with the story, but he did say "This wouldn't happen in one afternoon."
