Ah, it's one of those afternoons. You know the kind. Where you hear about something another writer is "getting" and you're not getting it and you feel like you need to crawl off and lie down in a quiet, dark hole somewhere. Don't pretend you don't know what I'm talking about. Oh, yes, you do.
So. Time to shake it off, and do my work. Must find a part I can really sink my teeth into.
The reasons for this blog: 1. To provide basic author information for students, teachers, librarians, etc. (Please see sidebar) 2. I think out loud a lot as I work through writing projects, and I'm trying to dump most of those thoughts here rather than on my friends.
