My Latest Obsession and Me


I wrote probably five or six sentences today, spread over two different projects. I did do some journal work relating to things I hope to write in the future, but real work...five or six sentences.

This reminds me of the movie The Hours, which I was talking about yesterday. I so relate to Virginia Woolf as she was portrayed in that movie--inept at housekeeping (she couldn't manage her help; if I had household help I would make them coffee and buy them doughnuts every day)and taking forever to squeeze out a sentence or two. Plus one morning she went for a walk, to which her husband said something like, "I wish I could just go for a walk in the middle of the day." Tomorrow I'm supposed to go for an eight-mile hike. Not that anyone will complain, but people would be justified if they did.

Oh, well. Enough whining.

A Couple of Links



The Golden Duck Awards are given for excellence in children's science fiction literature. I had some trouble figuring out what group sponsors this award, but it also seems to sponsor some kind of kid science fiction conference.

Then I heard about America Writes for Kids is a project that collects and organizes children's author websites by state so that kids and teachers can find local writers.
