You mean I have to write on a Saturday?

Thus far I have been publishing my 500 words a day to my little blog here. I had not originally intended for that to be a dimension of my penitence. I had hoped that simply getting into the habit of writing would help me to actually write some fiction again. Now, five hundred words of compulsory fiction does not promise to be very good, and I ( Read more... )

I think it's super great that you're writing. I told you that earlier today and it's still true. You keep rockin' on superstar.

Consider this your open invitation to a dinner party in Greenfield, Mass. Succulent culinary creations and witty repartee mixed with the requisite two-year-old bons mots is waiting for you whenever you can make it here.

You could ship them south. I have already said that I enjoy reading your writing. If you are expressing yourself I am not sure it is self absorbtion and most people know that a blog is not a "finished" product. I used to love when you posted some of your fiction. Once upon a time in my life I would wake up in the middle of the night with an idea for a story and I would have to get up and write it down or I couldn't go back to sleep. Often when I read it the next morning I just wadded it up and threw it away, but I did keep a couple for a while. I actually think there might be two on my old computer but I don't think I have any paper copies anymore. Just writing them down was good for me, it was like letting "it out" of my brain. I wish I had the confidence to send it on to anyone to read, but I have only done that once. Keep on keeping on.

I find that dinner parties are fading in popularity. You would do much for society in bringing them back into existence.
Dunk & I spent one winter having 4 different dinner parties. 4 couples total who would fit around our dinner table. It was loads of fun and everyone enjoyed our cooking.
I think you have inspired me to try that again... That kind of intimate party is, for me, the best kind.
