The dying dream of America

You can read my lament for America over on TrancendentalFloss.com.

Cool. I'm 3 hits away from 15k. Nice. My new bloggie has had 3k in 3 weeks, though. Strange.

The dying dream of America

just recently

the few & far between:
getting personal / about me

and the not-so-personal

"when you're slapped,
you'll take it.
and like it."

"Writing for a living
is a privilege
not a God-given right,
as the opportunities are few
though sought after
by many.
There are years of rejection
which serve
as a crude winnowing process,
after which
those left standing
are those
who simply must write."

-Novelist Richard Ford.
