Dedra Johnson: Mid-Stream
http://dedraj.blogspot.com/2011/04/mid-stream.html
Author of Sandrine's Letter to Tomorrow. Wednesday, April 13, 2011. I am deep enough in this first draft to be absent-minded, daydreamy, always a step back from the present, distracted, and even when I am not thinking I feel like I am thinking. That's the good news. So here I sit. Posted by Dedra Johnson. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I write and live in post-levee-breach New Orleans. I also teach creative writing (fiction, playwriting, screenwriting).

Dedra Johnson: Draft Undone
http://dedraj.blogspot.com/2011/05/draft-undone.html
Author of Sandrine's Letter to Tomorrow. Thursday, June 30, 2011. So here's the method of my madness:. I realize most of this first draft is wrong. But I have to finish it to have a complete, tangible draft to undo. Next, research. I can already visualize my plan. Next, a NEW first draft with the research, changes, unwindings, reknottings tucked into the manuscript and then weeks of deleting, pasting, moving, more deleting, drafting, moving, pausing, deleting and drafting.

Dedra Johnson: Love This Detergent
http://dedraj.blogspot.com/2011/10/love-this-detergent.html
Author of Sandrine's Letter to Tomorrow. Thursday, October 6, 2011. This is totally out of character for me but I love. Then we got a sample of Myndee Corkern's laundry detergent, that she created because she could not find one that didn't aggravate her daughter's eczema. Oh My God. A subtle, clean smell in the clothes and sheets that leaves my forehead smooth. One little scoop [we have a front-loader/high-efficiency]. And the clothes are clean. Check out Myndee's Etsy page. You know you want it now.

Author of Sandrine's Letter to Tomorrow. Friday, January 13, 2012. An Adjective You Don't Want to Hear. As in "transvaginal ultrasound.". Knowing what it is. Does not ease my stomach.

Dedra Johnson: Dog Care
http://dedraj.blogspot.com/2011/02/dog-care.html
Author of Sandrine's Letter to Tomorrow. Saturday, March 12, 2011. I have taken from the basenji's mouth:. Beer can wrapped in a paper bag. Chunk of blueberry muffin. Dirty piece of sausage. Piece of bread covered in ants. Unidentifiable pieces of plastic, various colors. And I have pulled a whole dried dracena. Leaf out his ass. Photo courtesy of dsb nola.
