This talk is encouraging to me, as I strive to be a diligent writer.
That being said, I am a bit into Eat, Pray, Love and don't like it yet. I still respect the author's powers, perspective, and commitment to the craft though.

This was a great start to my hopefully-productive Friday.
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of the disembodied creative genius. It's like a sneeze - you can feel it coming and look up into the light all you want to make it materialize and stop tormenting you, but the actual power behind a sneeze is uncontrollable. I want to be caught up in the feverish sneeze of writing!
Oh - and, Tasha, each country is like a new book entirely - if you don't like Italy, maybe you'll like India!
