Prompt
“I am lonely.” – Joseph B. Soloveitchik
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 . .

Really cute selfie. Have you beckoned the call of the west?

The image was my Brooklyn bathroom – which I no longer have. I arrived in Flagstaff yesterday and will be here for two months! I slept in late – til 7 am – today (yesterday was a seriously long travel day where I was awake for almost 24 hours), but I am ready for now for adventure and western beauty!

I love the Brooklyn bathroom selfie. Do you know “Call Of The West”Wall of Voodoo? You might enjoy listening to it.
