Oh, great pain, Danny Boy...
I didn't think yoga would cause so much pain. OMG, I am so out of shape. -
the unusually complicated relationship between a writer and her work
Hit a major dry spell again. Not sure what's going on with my brain, but words are slow and painful these days. Wouldn't trouble me so much if I didn't have the desire to write. I can't even describe it so much as writer's block. More like...a great internal barreness. Dreadful ( Read more... ) -
Mostly silly
1) Really bipolar these days. Up/down. Can/can't. Tired/antsy. Ready for some even keel, here ( Read more... ) -
Because I have decided I need to update while toasted more often...
Just spent the last hour and a half on the phone with my collaborator on the TV project. He's got a documentarian (?) interested the the project who may be able to help us get going.

So I'm countering that bad habit by a) going to bed earlier, b) gardening a lot and c) trying to be more social ( Read more... ) -
Watch this space

On the nature of inconsistency and other such stuff
