Finished Autobiography of a Yogi.
Also read: Escaping into the Open, by Elizabeth Berg (inspiration)
On Writing, by Stephen King (same)
Crazy for the Storm: A Memoir of Survival, by Norman Ollestad (book club). I really liked this book but I wanted to kill the writer's father at least a dozen times, especially when I saw picture of the dude carrying a less-than-one-year-old in a makeshift backpack on a surf board in the Pacific Ocean. Nowadays that would probably get you arrested and in my house that would get you dead.
I'm now reading Carrie by SK because it was the first book of his I ever picked up and he mentioned it in his writing how-to.
I've been really busy lately, too busy to write much or update my blog but I'm going to make it a bigger priority. For one thing I get cranky when I don't write, then I relieve that mental itch and feel so much better. Then I think: why am I not making the time to do this more regularly so I don't get all mentally constipated? (To mix some very unappealing metaphors.) So I'm going to work on that. We'll see how it goes.
