Writer’s Desk | Better Than Bullets

http://www.betterthanbullets.com/category/writers-desk

A Writer's Personal Journal. Category Archives: Writer’s Desk. All about writing, words, fiction, writing projects. Jaded Drunk at a Dry Wedding. I’ve been a bruised piece of shit for the last few days. Vulnerable like a snail chained to a trail of salt. Part of me sits back and watches the Angelina show like a jaded drunk at a dry wedding, while part of me brings my own salt shaker to the party. Whatever I am, the truth of it is always convoluted and polluted by how much I try to hide, by how much I rev...

A Writer's Personal Journal. The Wrong Kind of Luminescence. If I could live inside music I think I might be okay for always. I wish I could sleep in music, breathe in music, and dream in music. Why must I always sink in the cacophony of human voices instead? I wasn’t meant to live like this, in fragile skin, with breakable bones, and friable teeth. I was meant to be strong medicine, like retrograde Venus. What will I have left to say when my bullets are drawn? What will I have left to say when all the s...

A Writer's Personal Journal. In Which Saponification is as Magical as Dragons. I’m 14 years old here. In my gold lame jacket and feeling very ABC. These things scratch at my brain like tree branches in a wild storm. It hurts, but not in a way I can ever adequately describe. I don’t want to be like everyone else, I want them to see like ME. There are a number of things that make me feel painfully otherly. You only lose in adulthood what you are complicit in losing. If you lose your sense of wonder the...

http://www.almostgotit.com/page/2

So, kids are mostly raised and I've just gone back to work…. Working in a cubicle makes me want to throw paper airplanes…. May 08, 2010. So far, I have restrained myself. But wouldn’t it be funny? In the middle of a big room full of people working away studiously in their cubicles, if paper airplane suddenly came sailing over their walls? I’ve learned that people often take me for a very serious person when they first meet me, so it’s funny when I get to surprise them. May 07, 2010. May 05, 2010. Paid of...

So, kids are mostly raised and I've just gone back to work…. It is the flash of a firefly in the night. – Ispwo Mukika Crowfoot. June 24, 2007. A friend of mine lives in the country, and her old farmhouse is surrounded by acres of trees, which on summer nights are full of twinkling fireflies. Before she built a deck off her 2nd floor bedroom, we used to climb out her bedroom window to sit on the porch roof with a bottle of wine just to watch them. And who Just. Don’t. Care. All of these wonderful, firefl...

http://www.almostgotit.com/2008/07/07/summer-potluck-for-monday-with-blackberries

So, kids are mostly raised and I've just gone back to work…. Summer Potluck for Monday, with Blackberries. July 07, 2008. Category: Iowa summer festival of writing. Last year, it was a terrific party. We missed it last night. It’s complicated. The Husband got stuck at a long meeting – yes, on Sunday. The Son needed to have some staples taken out of his head, also on a Sunday, and subsequently discovered that the Minute Clinic. The Mother just pulled out some pork chops, warmed up the grill, and sighed.
