Prompt
“are women people? a nation investigates” – Sonia Saraiya
On Writing
Breathe the sentence in. Exhale the sentence. Inhale and exhale each word. Now inhale and exhale the sentence. Then, go!
There is only one rule, keep your hand moving.
Don’t worry about grammar, spelling, or punctuation. If you feel stuck, keep writing anyway. Try going back to the prompt and write it out until other words arise, then write those—or, repeat the last word you wrote again and again until new words appear—or, write, “I am stuck,” or “I can’t think of anything,” as long as you keep your hand moving. Writing is physical, the words will move through your body and come out of your hand—just keep it moving.
Now go – for five, ten, fifteen minutes . .

Hey Holly. I thought you had disappeared, but you have been blogging. Apparently WP dropped me as a follower. I’m back onboard.

That’s great. We need to take care of our mothers. Mine died in August. She was 97, a month and half shy of 98. She just got tried of it all and gave up on life.

Aw. Love to you and your mom.
My mom is very frustrated to day that she can’t walk, she kept saying – i want to go for a walk. We take her out everyday – but she just got back from being out. It was a tough afternoon. ❤
