leahbobetAugust 24, 2011 Progress Notes:
"Shine a Light"
Words today: 300.
Words total: 550.
Reason for stopping: Getting sleeeepy.
Darling du Jour: Ismat and Zain are cousins. They have the same fine hands. Neither of them has lost a finger yet. Their hands are too important to the rest of us.
Mean Things: Cutting people's fingers off. A certain lack of mobility.
Research Roundup: Popular Sri Lankan names; chestnut varieties in Toronto.
Books in progress: Catherine Bush, The Rules of Engagement.
The glamour: There is all the thunderstorm in the world tonight. It's been going for over two hours. Also, I think I recreated Bird's Custard, but with real food instead of cornstarch and crap.
That clear, lucid, clean horror-fiction prose? It's hard.
I have a lot of things to say right now -- about politics, about friendships, about grief and inspiration and a lot more -- but they haven't quite organized themselves verbally just yet. There may be essays pending, or fiction, or hectic action. There may not. Stay tuned.
