This morning I was getting my Friday corporate bagel still carrying my copy of The Well Fed Writer, by Peter Bowerman that I'd been reading on the bus when someone from another department mentioned that she had the book as well. So we talked shop -- not company shop; writer's shop for a few minutes. I LOVE spontaneous writer shop talk. She mentioned the site where she writes online-- which I've heard of, but haven't written for. I am definitely going to check it out though.
Tonight, there is a happy hour with the department peeps -- which I will go to, but it will be a sober hour for me, because I have an article to finish tonight. There's also a few other things I want to get to this weekend-- including my Authorscopes blog on Herman Melville/Moby Dick.
I will have to make a point to meet more writers, because it really does energize me. And one of these days I should get to the Loft in Minneapolis. Maybe even tomorrow.
I can't forget this. I can't let myself get too busy to write. It's WAY too important to my well being, so I'm pledging today that I will write everyday-- even if it is just this blog, but hopefully it will be much more. But the grind calls me now, so, as Tigger would say....
TTFN! (Ta ta for now!)
