Well I am still not sure about the whole reposting my writing on here thing. I really want to it was so awesome to hear from people. I did repost some of my poetry on my other blog. So that is a start.
What an amazing day at the Nimrod conference for readers and writers. How lucky am I to get to live where so many diverse authors congregate? Meeting and talking to award winners, beginners, old hats, is nothing less than humbling and inspiring. There was no conflict, or separation of class, race, or any of the other constraints that tend to push us apart in our every day lives. Only human beings discussing, sharing, and honing their craft. A wonderful exchange between minds and souls that left at least one of those human word crafters rejuvenated,inspired, and honored. Two of my favorite moments today come from the very eloquent Robin Coste Lewis. We were having our lunch in the great hall and she came in and sat at our table. I was completely and utterly speechless. I tend to get that way around writers. I especially go dumb around poets. I would have no problem approaching any actor, the president,or anyone else, however writers...yeah...I lose it. There is so...
Today I learned of the passing of one of my ildles, Tom Clancy. I was very saddened by this especially seeing his age. He was only 66 years old. Now I realize many people would say, 66! I am not one of those. I do not think 66 is that long in the tooth. However I digress. My ramblings today are not about age in and of itself. My post is more about time, the lack thereof and procrastination. How many times have you sat around and said, I wish it were Friday already, or, I can't wait for Christmas? I myself have said these things before. It's something we just don't think about, just things that everyone says, right? Yes, I suppose they are just those insignificant little things that all of us say now and againg. Little human responses to times in our lives when perhaps we wish for easier days, or happier circumstances. I know that my own mother used to tell me to never w...
I know that a lot of people are reeling over this whole stalking the star thing and yes it is horrid and a little bit slasher movie scary that someone would go to such great lengths to find said actor/actress and track them down. What in Hades do they think will happen if they find them? That they'll become best friends, lovers? Do they think they'll laugh it off and go skipping hand in hahd through the meadow away in the distance, drinking sparkling water, eating strawberries and living happily ever after?????? UMMMMM NO. I will tell you what will happen. They'll skip on down to the poky with a restraining order slapped on them plus possibly a dozen other charges and perhaps nursing several wounds from having their ass kicked by said actor/actress, the police, body guards, spouse of actor/ actress. Who has time for that crap? I mean I barely have time to adore from yahoo's home page, twitter, or Facebook. Seriously...who h...
