I wanted to be the next Picoult, Stockett or Letts until I realized that somewhere I must have inhaled a few Rooney, Bombeck and Sadaris viruses. Being an essayist is a kind of sneeze, nobody wants to sit near you but it feels so good when you let one go. Thanks for the Bailey link Janet; makes my column deadline a little more realistic.
WT Have I been living under a rock? Brilliant list, brilliant writing. Aspiration level raised again. Janet, I think I'm going to become a breatharian because you feed me the most delicious of delicious. Just when I need another meal, Blogger, Janet Reid appears in my inbox. Thanks.
Keep your comments succinct. Any comment that runs longer than 100 words is generally too long.
If you're commenting more than three times a day, it's too much.
Civility is enforced. Spelling/grammar mistakes may be pointed out ONLY in the blog post itself, not in any of the ensuing commenter's contributions.
If your comment doesn't show up, it's most likely that Blogger ate it. Try posting again using a GoogleID. (comment moderation is on only for older posts)
