I give up.
The next/new story
is just not going to get written
until
it turns ugly
outside.

Life and writing, serious and humorous, old and young, past and present: it's all part of the fabric.
“Maybe we’re here only to say: house, bridge, well, gate, jug, olive-tree, window--at most, pillar, tower--but to say them, remember, oh! to say them in a way that the things themselves never dreamed of so intensely.” --Rilke
Bravo!! Let that beauty fill you.
ReplyDeleteHey Sharon! I get it! You have traded one beautiful view for another. Things are lookin' good up there. Enjoy the break.
ReplyDeleteAs it should be.
ReplyDeleteLet it be! Things have their own time.
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to say that I finished Walk Two Moons for probably the fourth time last night, and it's as life-changing as ever. Those characters have been with me since childhood; thank you for them.
ReplyDeleteI do have a question which I hope isn't too presumptuous. I recently finished writing a short YA novel about a 14 year old girl on a cross-country trip with her blue-haired older sister, which I believe is similar to your novels in terms of a character-driven story and family based themes. I'm not going to ask you to read it or anything, but I am wondering if I could perhaps get the name of your agent? I know its a shot in the dark, as any querying is, but I'm doing my best to find agents who are more likely to connect with my literary aesthetic, and I thought of you. Anyway, thank you so much, and thanks again for your incredible books!
Sigh...so lovely...and those clouds reflected in the water...dreamy...
ReplyDeleteWith your brother and sisters, lots of story ideas are kindling near the surface, I bet. Camden is such a creative place too. Dreams will come.
