testimony
Anyone out there drinking bad wine and listening to Rhye? I am tonight.
Anyone out there forgot to cork the bottle last night? I did.
Anyone out there only have two Rhye songs that they listen to on repeat? I do.
Anyone out there walk through the rain today?
Drink countless mugs of tea?
Eat a brussel sprout with relish and slurp
seven sexy udon noodles?
Anyone out there about to light a candle to shut out gathering gloom?
Tonight is there anyone who can testify?
Anyone who can be a witness to love laughter and the pursuit of meaning in minute, hour, day?
Somebody step up here and say a word.
A big word. A bubbling word. A word that sparkles and rattles and ka-POWs.
Anybody out there tonight?

Just a note: Merry said yesterday, You know some women box? And we could say, "It's true! We know one!"
Any news on your book? I'm also in a holding pattern. . blah. One yearns for the excitement of total commitment and enthusiasm of a publisher!

Joyce Carol Oates wrote an essay on boxing, and when she gets to women, she calls us something like "monstrous." I hereby withdraw my enjoyment of her novels!
4 rejections. We're thinking of self-publishing, because there's a ready and anxious audience of Kevin's friends (and mine, I'd hope). Which book are you trying to sell?
Here's to absurdity. How could we truly enjoy life without it?
Can I get an Amen?
That's all.

Amen!
Amen!
Amen!
I have a novel for young readers that I've been working on for years, off and on, waiting in the wings. Once again, will it be rejected? A publisher is looking at it. . .my hopes are not high. I think I will be back to the drawing board again. But I am fairly resigned to that and to the fact that my characters deserve a broader read. . .just need to find the right package. Alas, that seems to be what much of publishing is these days: the right package, the right sell. Bah.
