Wow, I am being really lazy about this whole writing thing.
I have not, however been lazy about my reading. I have finished a couple of books in Paradise Lost, Finished Farewell to Arms, got through Dante’s Divine Comedy (sort of), and have a lot of notes in my journal about the story that I want to write. Really, when it comes down to it, I forget about the fact that I have the power of the blog at my fingertips. And by power, I simply mean that I write for its own sake, and maybe a person or two will read it.
I also came back from a long vacation with Rachelle, and it was very epic. We went to Montana, Yellowstone, Arches and Canyonlands. All said and done, we were in 4 states in two weeks for a grand total of almost 3000 miles. I got to camp, which I love. I still want to find a campsite somewhere in the middle of nowhere so that I have no choice but to focus on reading, writing, character development and contemplation. This is why I am reading Thoreau; I want to feel the power of solitude without doing it myself.
Maybe someday I will become a regular customer here, but we will see.
