Glad to see you're still around. Thought you'd fallen off the proverbial earth-face. I share your fate. I've found it's better to embrace it, not worry about it and let your body and mind work its clock out, which it will mostly. The hard part is the not worrying about it. You ever read "Boy's Life" by Robert McCammon? I'm almost through with it. Good read from a good southern writer.
I am still around. I've been a bad poster, but I have been reading others blogs. :) I'm going to try to get back into the swing of things since its good for my writing chops and they need all the help they can get. I'm going to try to remember to syndicate posts from my website to this LJ, but in case I forget, don't forget to check it out there at www.amwhitsett.net/wordpress
I haven't read "Boy's Life" but I will definitely have to check it out. You've never steered me wrong on a book and I'm ALWAYS looking for good suggestions.
Also, "Dandelion Wine", by Ray Bradbury. It's one of those books I keep a copy around to permanently lend/give to people - along with "Dune", "The Magus" and "Suttree", and . . . I guess I should just stop here.
I own every one of those books except Suttree, but I have others of McCarthy. I freaking LOVE Bradbury. I would love to twist him up like a towel and wring out short stories until the end of time. He's amazing. I do have a copy of The Magus, but to be honest, I've been a little intimidated to start it. Any Mr. Jimmy words of wisdom for reading that one?
