That “I Write Like Thing” and my results
Isn’t it ironic?
Isn’t it ironic?
Betty Lou Lynn, the woman who portrayed Thelma Lou, on The Andy Griffith Show moved to Mount Airy, NC ( the town that inspired Mayberry) to avoid crime of big cities.
Last week, she had her wallet stolen in a local shopping center.
Police arrested Shirley Walter Guynn, of Cana, Va.
I find it doubly ironic that the dude’s name is Shirley.…
I am SO GOOD, that three years later, I can still annoy you.
You can bow and chant that you are not worthy.
And I’ll blush and Aw- shucks you while kicking up dust….
but seriously?
I think it is FANTASTIC that I can continue to piss people off about something that I wrote way back when…
Here’s the original post and comments
Note the latest comments as like- last week, and totally off the mark. C’mon people? if you want to rant, at least get it straight what you’re ranting about. Haven’t I taught you anything?
Geesch.
Funny how I get a whole bunch of hits from employees at that unmentioned company …
One of a few things I'm trying to not dwell on.
Here’s the backstory if you’re new here-
or if you’re like my husband who only hears the words that come after steak, beer, bed, free or panties.
I wrote a (steak) novel- actually three, but here- to minimize dwelling potential- we’re only talking about the one my agent read, liked, edited and last week pitched to a bunch of (beer) hot NYC editors.
It’s summer, so of course I have plenty to do to keep me busy (panties) during the waiting period- which I have been told can be three days, four weeks, five months, six years or somewhere short …
Only in a restroom in Cusseta, Alabama.
Writers see the world… differently.
It looks kind of like this:
EVERYTHING IS, HAS, WAS, WILL OR CAN BE A STORY.
Just as everyone you meet is a potential character and every conversation you hear may be stored away for later use. Having a writer as a friend can be dangerous, partying with fellow writers fills my well. (Hello Southampton friends!)
It is so nice when people “get you,” when explanations are unnecessary and when you can experience truly witty parlay.
So, it will come as no surprise to my writing friends that I found a story in a restroom …
When TWITTERING gets creepy- WITH UPDATE
I saw this twitter today and it totally creeped me out.
I know how some people are joking on there, and how some are looking for attention and how some are marketing themselves.. and how some of us use it to connect with friends.
But that whole cry out touched me, and I wonder if there is something there and how would you help and how would you know.. I mean are there Twitter police? A Twitter Emergency squad?
Someone who will arrive at your designated Twitter-fied GPS location to pull the knife out of your hand, the pills …
3 Death Cards in my Tarot Today=Obituary Post
Another person I wished I’d had the pleasure of meeting.
From the NYT 3-20-09 By WILLIAM GRIMES (read complete here)
“We are not after all intended to be consumed.”
So begins Lionel Ziprin’s “Sentential Metaphrastic,” a “poem in progress” of more than a thousand pages. “I reduced it to 785 pages,” Mr. Ziprin told The Jewish Quarterly in 2006. “I call it the longest and most boring poem since Milton’s ‘Paradise Lost.’ ”
Mr. Ziprin, a brilliant, baffling, beguiling voice of the Lower East Side and the East Village in all its phases — Jewish, hipster and hippie …
Insanity is super sanity.
“For me, insanity is super sanity. The normal is psychotic. Normal means lack of imagination, lack of creativity.“
Jean Dubuffet
I love that. After a week of writing, getting lost in alternate worlds and spending more time in my head puzzle solving, inventing and musing, it can be hard to bring myself back to reality- in whatever form. Though I will never be as bizarre as the artists below, I love them for their creativity, for their imagination, for their bravery. I wish I had more friends like that, people who understand that it’s much too easy to be …
