A Lesson in the Wheelhouse
This is fine. It’s really fine, in fact.
I am not, contrary to popular opinion, a people person.
I write what makes me comfortable and sometimes what makes me squirm. Or I just sit on one end of the picnic bench.
Book Club Update
We forgot to take photos, so there aren’t any. Look for staged shots later.
We found the book readable but not worth re-reading nor re-recommending. No link will follow.
We found the food good. The company lively. The lingering husband short-lived and two mingling cats unusually friendly.
Thank you, Amtrak.
Train from Bratislava to Budapest
I often write while watching things go by: people, scenery, that dappled horse in the back corner of a farmer’s field rearing up just as the train passes. So the writers’ residencies to be put in place by Amtrak definitely deserve a spot on my blog and my Facebook page and anywhere else I can write about them, for that matter. Thanks, Amtrak, for realizing the value of artists, the financial struggles they go through, and the ways in which you can help contribute to their success.
