Writing Fodder

As usual, the trip to Alabama provided serious grist for the mill, especially for the Daisy Doe book. An abandoned business district that’s beginning to turn East Village-ish, a flea market that was more like prowling through an old barnyard than someone’s suburban garage (including the need to watch where you stepped), and grizzled old men selling some slightly illegal items under the table. Exhausting, but the non-stop activity sparked the creativity in me that had started to flounder. I didn’t get to work on Rae much, but that, too, is back on track.

Travel is an amazing renewal process for me, even the short jaunts. Highly recommended to anyone stuck in a writing rut.

More later…lots to catch up on, workwise.

Glad to see you are feeling better and back in the flow. I took a trip to the woods this past weekend. If you talk to yourself in the woods… no one hears. It’s like crying in the rain. Anyway, I’m back to the grind and fighting a few frustrating battles.
