Writer's block, an owner's guide: 40 days this time

How odd. How totally odd.

Small world, isn’t it.

One of my most distinguished mentors drew my attention to this opportunity to be supported in writing a first draft in forty days.

I looked. And it turned out the opportunity is offered by the first two people I ever met in California, when I visited the Bay Area with a mutual acquaintance in 1998, and ended up dossing on one of their floors for a couple of nights while having a post-divorce-settlement breakdown. Two kind funny creative people I have never spoken to since then, just because that’s how life goes sometimes. One sunny morning in Berkeley they introduced me to the pancake breakfast, which is still one of my ten top reasons for living in California.

Ah, happy days. Anyway - small world, huh? Go take their class. I recommend it totally, while knowing nothing at all about it. Buy their eggs, too.
