I wrote two pieces for the writing group in the midst of my
chaos. I reread both yesterday and was
much surprised to find that they are pretty good. The non-fiction work is pretty cynical. I was embarrassed to discover that. Then again, I was pretty depressed when I
wrote it.
I mentioned to one of the writing group that swims with me
in the mornings that it was good tho cynical.
Funny too.
“You are a funny lady,” she said.
That made me laugh.
Two family members recently lost jobs because of their
cynicism. I really don’t want to foster
any more enthusiasm for cynicism around here.
Then again, that piece is funny.
wow, I'm impressed with you for writing and writing well under such duress. You are gifted indeed.
ReplyDeleteGuess the "piles" and clutter are still on your mind. Glad you were able to create two poems in any case.
ReplyDeleteYou certainly get a lot done in so little time.
ReplyDeleteI think that one of the best feelings in the world is when you find and re-read a piece you wrote long ago and recognize it as good, even have a momentary "who wrote that" moment. Congratulations. You are a funny lady, and cynicism in control can be a good thing.
