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. :-)

You are as bad as you wanna be...

1000 words over lunch? What a bad ass. I would be happy, happy,happy about that wordcount.

I am in awe of your outage, considering what little time you had to work with!

Mmmhmmm. Just don't get cocky about it. ;-)
