False Starts
I'm writing a piece for The Nation. I can't say much about it (that would be giving it away), but my hope is that it will be the best thing they've ever read. They'll have to publish it, send a handsome check my way, and invite me to be the newest permanent member of their staff. Before you know it I'll be taking on O'Reilly.
Yeah. Eh-hem.
In reality, I've been dicking around (can I say that?) with the article for days now and I feel like a second grader trying to get the cursive alphabet right. Incompetent, in other words. Which makes me wonder: Do you feel this way? Let's commiserate. Tell me what false starts you're struggling with these days and I'll elaborate on mine. Maybe we can help each other.

Sue, Spell check catches "considered". And cleaning toilets is a ritual that comes between creative word-ing and boring writing. Books can result, or poems or letters to sick friends. 300 words fly by. RRM
