Sun, 13:15: Rejection in, new submission out. Like returning a serve in a tennis game. Sun, 13:18: Last night I dreamed that Stan Robinson and I were on the faculty of a religious education school (I think it was Unitarian). #noideawhat

Sat, 22:53: I think I will never read the comments section of anything. Just reading rants about them makes me tired. Sat, 22:56: It’s entirely possible that I’ll never see a Lars Von Trier film. Everything I hear makes me curious, but mostly curious-icky, you know?

Thu, 08:43: As a boy from Detroit, I find it nifty that I can hear the faint call of a fog horn from my bedroom.
Tue, 09:52: I have started this accursed story three different ways. Does it not want to be written?
Sun, 13:20: We saw a pair of white tail deer in the soccer field near our house on our way home from the Christmas pageant today.
Sat, 07:59: Watched the solstice sunrise. 3 of clouds delayed the sun’s appearance by 12 minutes. Sun in the SSE, 155. Sat, 09:28: Caught myself singing “pancakes in the warmer drawer” to the tune of “Step in Time.” Clearly I need some new material. </u

Sun, 13:48: Writing bored characters: if you’re not convincing, the reader will find it unrealistic. If you are convincing, the reader will be bored.
Sat, 10:18: The standard clich of mundane military punishment is being forced to peel potatoes for hours. Just sayin’. #latkeprep
