Full-time

I read the perfect article in Poet and Writers Magazine. It interviewed authors who wrote and worked full-time jobs to pay the bills. It celebrated the art of discipline. Well,maybe I have it and maybe I don't, but it seems to all be working out okay for me so far.

Not sure how I'm balancing it all. Maybe I hadn't had the energy before because I didn't have the passion before. It seems as if writing has woke something up inside of me that has been asleep for a while. Grateful to the fingertips and the lap top. I want to do with words and characters what Louie Armstrong did with the sax in New York in the 30's. The characters in "Her" are starting to wake up now. Scratching their hair, rubbing their eyes and about to put the bottoms of their feet on the floor and get ready to go to work.

About to review some of Dina's work she is a quiet literary goddess.
