And by the way, everything in life is writable about if you have the outgoing guts to do it, and the imagination to improvise.  The worst enemy to creativity is self-doubt.

I just watched this, Saturday night, and I’m still so in LOVE with this story, and the characters–Holly Golightly, I adore you, and you’re crazy yet vulnerable way of living!  Paul!  Fred, Darling, I love that you’re a freaking manwhore and the hero–and you pull it off!

I want to read the book, I want to own the movie (I netflixed it) so that whenever I feel sad, I can watch this movie and make my heart smile again.

I love this site, vintageglam.com.  It’s just fun to look at.  And while I’m so NOT into the Martha Stewart It’s-A-Good-Thing style of living (who the frack has time for that?), I still enjoy the the ideas and printouts.  Like Mad Lib thank you notes.  What writer can’t appreciate a good Mad Lib?  Or a clothesline guest book.  It’s so unique, and so… not taking ourselves too seriously.  Anyway, look around.  Waste an hour.

Let’s dream a little today, shall we?  Because what I need, what my heart’s true desire is, I can’t afford.  And you probably can’t either.  But that’s okay, we’re dreaming.  We’re dreaming of a computer so intuitively functional, it makes writing a breeze.  We’re dreaming of a computer that they make the best writing software for, like Curio.

We’re dreaming about the Macbook Air.  I won’t sell you on it.  Just look at it, for heaven’s sake, and tell me you don’t covet it.  If you can afford it, buy one, right now.  Trust me on this.  If you can’t?  Come sit by me and dream a little.

The role of a writer is not to say what we all can say, but what we are unable to say.

Sometimes I just assume everyone knows about the sites I love.  Then I realize, perhaps not.  So, I’m linking to one of my favorite sites on the internet:  Deviant Art.

You know how in high school, there’s this place where all the cool people hang out?  Well, Deviant Art is where all the incredibly talented cool people hang out, and you’re invited.  Go.  Go waste an hour.
