Lie back...and think of England

Quote of the day:

"Life is what happens when you're alive and you might as well lie back and enjoy it."

—Neil Gaiman, American Gods

Which of course called to mind this Diane Arbus picture, entitled Westchester Family:

Writing talk of the day:

After the hiatus, I plunged back into Night Warrior with vim and vigor yesterday. I wrote nearly a thousand words on lunch, which is way ahead of the usual. I feel as if I've finally gotten over the psychic, intellectual, and physical exhaustion of my unexpected household move with all that time off. And I think it's showing in my approach to The Novel yesterday. It felt really, really good to work on it again.

And I anticipate feeling good on my lunch writing session today. :-)

HOO-rah!

Another great session today. 1250 words--and I finished a scene that I've been aiming towards for months. I actually begin to hope that I'll finish this bastard! Bam! Booya! And furthermore, HOO-rah!
