A long time friend visited for a bit yesterday and we had a nice time swapping yarns around the kitchen table. For people who live so close to town we are very cut off from local stuff and it was really nice....especially since I was done writing for the day and didn't have to be distracted by that going on in the back of my mind.
I can't relax and settle down to gardening and household chores until the Farm Side is done, so I try to get 'er finished as early in the week as I can. Tuesday is pretty good.....
The Farm Side sure is lucky to have such a fine writer and observer among its contributors. Same could be said for your blog readers. But I know how the responsibility of deadlines can loom. It's been twenty-five years since I left my job as a writer/editor responsible to producing a newspaper/magazine for Skidmore College, and I still have anxiety dreams about not having copy ready by deadline.
ReplyDeleteJacqueline, thank you for your kind words. I hear you on the deadlines! I only have to produce 1000 words a week, but i often agonized over them.
