@susanjtweit I applaud those efforts, Susan. Given how so many of us were raised, it can take constant attention, can't it.

How Poetry Comes to Me

It comes blundering over the
Boulders at night, it stays
Frightened outside the
Range of my campfire
I go to meet it at the
Edge of the light

“There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed.”

Not all authors can do this, but if you can ever make it happen, do.

[Sayed Tabatabai, M.D. @TheRealDoctorT]

Today begins the first time off I’ve ever taken in my life solely for the purpose of writing.

No more will my writing only be done in the wee hours of the morning, or the depths of the night.

“One day I will find the right words, and they will be simple.” - Kerouac.

Let’s go.

@rednosestudio Chain's a little slack, but I love the training skis! Your mind is such fun, Chris.

@susanjtweit @MarcellaCreates @shewritespress @brooke_warner @WISCAMH (I'll reply from here.) Let's just say that long-present winter ice is beginning to break apart and I can once again hear the quiet flow of the river water it's been muffling. No particular timeframe, but I am now more receptive to queries about future projects. ~Marcella

Started a new A5 notepad today by writing a short story based on this week's Typewriter Club Live typing prompt (the beginning of the first sentence)✨

May be of interest to those interested in U S publishing history

There is a virtual event about the collection on 4/27

(Personal note, I worked at Lippincott 1979-2007, in medical editorial)

Eyecatching, but for the wrong reasons.

MS Word, perhaps. Also reminds me of brochures made by secretaries in the beginning of "desktop publishing," when my design clients bought "personal computers" to do bookkeeping plus everything else.

I lost clients, then gained them back! https://t.co/eN3JqTOtHV

My daughter just asked me how to spell squirrel. I found out that she was writing a book. Now she’s grounded for 12 years.

I try to stay away from politics in this account, but this is personal to me. If you don't know much - or anything - about this*, please take time to educate yourself.

Thank you, Seattle Times journalists, for facing up to this and acknowledging the errors made at the time.

I'm always in awe of artists. This image breaks my heart.

You may need to look closely. (Title at bottom of QT.)

I don't know about European copyright laws, but please join me in presuming the image is protected by law. (Artist doesn't seem to be on twitter, or I'd have asked.)

12:16 am in #Ukraine

Ready to sleep.
It was hard day for Ukraine.
Slavutych (Kyiv region) was occupied, explosions in Lviv, alarms were crying all over Western Ukraine.
We need to stay strong,

Good night, world.

I'm impressed.
