week...6? heidi

i've been pretty off lately. i suspect my mail has been going undelivered the past two days. my stomach has a nervousness. sense of pending. have been writing but mostly avoiding it because it feels emotionally draining. often thinking i'll sit down to write a scene but end up writing everything up until "that moment" of the scene begins. tell myself i will come back to it later, then don't. obvious avoidance.

been listening to a lot of prince, eating a lot of burritos, thinking about religion. interested in televangelism. non-denominational churches. choir singing.

i ran out of mills free prints, officially paying for it. "next purse" they call it.

i am going home over spring break for six days. cherry blossoms.

  1. hi "nancy" and "tim." the yellow and blue combo is beautiful. he has his eyes showing and she does not. they smile semi. what they are thinking is mystery: the snow and the couple indented more towards the left.

    what is the story.

    heidi, thanks for sharing. though, it sounds like you are working on fiction, and i'm crafted up some poetry. i, too, am having an awfully shenanigan of a time with this here writing process. Relay to tablet--relate-able. Nonetheless, "cherry blossoms."

  2. writing feels emotionally draining to me right now too. feeling generally tired lately and your post really struck a chord with me. obvious avoidance. where are you from back east? i grew up right outside DC and a lot of your writing sounds like it's coming from the virginia/dc/maryland area. Also I started reading your draft last night and am really looking forward to talking about it in class with you :)
