The Are-You-Kidding-Me Section

And a few notes from the Are-You-Kidding-Me section of my life: 1. Kid 1 has been going to a seriously awesome conference over the past 3 days at BYU for high school theatre kids, and she is in drama-queen heaven. In fact, I haven’t seen her much at all, and certainly not in daylight, and

Things That Get in the Way of Writing (a short list).

1. Reading. Books. Blogs. Emails. More blogs. Kids’ book reports. Mail. Junk mail. Advertisements. Old letters. Magazine articles. 2. Sleeping. I’m actually a much more productive writer in my dreams. Bummer. 3. Sadness. Some small but difficult things have happened over the past three months (which we’ll talk about later), and I have found it
