Finished Artemis Fowl. Review to follow. (I hope!)



Now for the last couple of days....

Wednesday and Thursday
I did lots of journaling and idea generation (usually at Starbucks) but nothing concrete on my stories.

But speaking of writing....

I discovered a while back that I constantly generate new ideas, images, and even entire scenes will driving. Since it would not be conducive to jot down anything while driving (California drivers are bad enough), I decided to get a tape recorder.

The idea is not new to writers or even to myself. I asked R. about any old ones in the house and was given…after several weeks…a top-of-the-line model. From the 1980s. I looked at the hulking black box and, after biting down a remark about obsolete technology, said thank you.

The recorder has worked out quite well after we put in new AA batteries (requires two) and a new tape. I've already recorded several days worth of ideas while noting my daily activities to later put in my blog. (I forgot, for example, most of Wednesday until I listened to my recording of that day.)


Countdown: nine days before blog change....

Thousand...


"To travel a thousand mile is better than to read a thousand scroll of books."

A...slight change...to this Hero of the Month's philosophy.
