"It was imprudent of us, in the first place, to become authors. We could have become something regular, but we managed not to.
We were lucky, but we were also determined." Roy Blount Jr

"I don’t change the facts to enhance the drama. I think of it the other way round, the drama has got to fit the facts,
and it’s your job as a writer to find the shape in real life."
Hilary Mantel

Snow Day!



After a January thaw that took temperatures near 60 degrees on Saturday, and eradicated most of our snow, winter decided it wasn't finished with us yet!

About 6 inches fell during the day. It's very beautiful.

Slept really late. Shovelled a path across the front deck. Got some writing done. Did other stuff. Drove to the city for an evening meeting and back again in time for the husband's phone call--he reported on his meetings in Washington, DC. Short trip: left yesterday, back again tomorrow.

Why does it always snow--a lot--when he's away?
