Coupons from the Edge: June 2006

Coupons from the Edge. Friday, June 30, 2006. I did it. I got to the end. At this moment, Victory stands at 84,233 words, which will change up or down, perhaps considerably after I "fix" the professor character. She is the one probably furthest from my heart emotionally so I intend to get in there and bolster her somehow. Classroom scenes will help, I think, and I have a wealth of material for THAT assignment. Does it need an oil change? I hate when mechanics scold me. Well, no, I don't think so. I heard...

Coupons from the Edge. Wednesday, October 26, 2005. A recurring occasional thought. Think about all the hours we spend sleeping. Midnight. You are out cold, dreaming, REM sleep not kicked in yet. That's the sleep where you do a lot of blinking with your eyes closed and thrash around like Freddy Kreuger. Or maybe it's dogs that do that. I thought REM was a rock band. 1am Squirrels chewing their way into weak house parts. Mice browsing through silverware drawer. You drooling into your pillow. 6am FINALLY t...

Coupons from the Edge. Tuesday, February 28, 2006. Okay, so I'm trying it. The other plan wasn't working. I know when I'm beaten and I was beaten. I started yesterday and I felt pretty hungry. My instincts were to go indulge my hunger but I didn't. I like the rocotta creme you get to have for a snack. That is good. I'm pretty sure the one I made was bigger than half a cup, though. Half a cup? So we'll see how it goes. Sorry for the rant. My agent Kristin has a great blog called. Sunday, February 26, 2006.

Coupons from the Edge. Sunday, July 30, 2006. Swimming Pool Theory of Life. You can swim all around the pool and never find happiness. I knew this was profound even at an early age. Hi, I'm Dr. Mojo and today we'll be forming the pulmonary system of your baby.". My next post will be from Arkansas, depending on whether my dad's computer is working. Posted by Becky Willis Motew @ 9:43 AM. Thursday, July 27, 2006. Living the Dream Redux. Short post today because of shower invitations. I'm a hell of a ga...

Coupons from the Edge. Friday, December 30, 2005. Why does everything have to be new? Why can't we keep shopping at the old places, then have them re-modeled and keep shopping there some more? But NOOOOOOOOOOOO, everybody has to build NEW malls and leave the old storefronts empty. It's stupid. Perhaps tantrums will serve me better than the current sniveling jellyfish routine I use now. Posted by Becky Willis Motew @ 8:53 AM. Wednesday, December 28, 2005. I recently read I AM CHARLOTTE SIMMONS and enjoyed...

Coupons from the Edge: January 2006

Coupons from the Edge. Monday, January 30, 2006. My old high school, Mt. St. Mary's Academy in Little Rock, Ark., changed its name a few years ago to Mount St. Mary Academy. Well, lah dee freakin' da. I'm here to say I don't like it. What's wrong with St. Mary's? That's what everyone calls it anyway. Knowing that I'm saying it wrong makes me feel restive and rebellious. It puts me back in Sister Corona's library when I was compelled to roll an orange on the floor. OH DID YOU HEAR ME? NUN 2: Yes Sister.

Coupons from the Edge. Wednesday, November 30, 2005. A Positive Thought about the Holidays. I love the democratic effect of the holidays. You have to be at the airport, though, to appreciate it. But during the holidays, people go home. They go back to East Podunk, East Overshoe, Poplar Bluff, Grand Rapids. All these Rolex people with the good suits are standing around in the bowling alley area with the peasants. It's a nice feeling. Posted by Becky Willis Motew @ 6:07 PM. Tuesday, November 29, 2005.

Coupons from the Edge. Saturday, April 29, 2006. What are we doing now that we don't know we're doing? Profound for a Saturday night, huh? I've got a scratchy cough and the start of some weird cold. I shopped again for book signing duds and came up empty again. I'm going to have to settle on something soon. Posted by Becky Willis Motew @ 8:50 PM. Thursday, April 27, 2006. Excuse me, Dr. Freud? I promised you dreams. What was THAT about? None of your freaking business. See? Not all my dreams are troubling...

Coupons from the Edge. Thursday, March 30, 2006. New England Yankee Rednecks. Don't let people tell you rednecks are only in the South. Based on 30 years of residency, here are my personal criteria. 1) public crotch scratching. 3) pulling down pants and hitching them up in post office parking lot (see 1). 4) tree stumps for teeth. Someone said these people defecate into a big hole in the living room, but surely that isn't true either. I'm gullible, though. We know that. When the weather's goo...Anyway, t...

Coupons from the Edge. Wednesday, May 31, 2006. My computer is psychotic. It won't let me see my own entries. It's driving me insane. Posted by Becky Willis Motew @ 9:51 PM. Tuesday, May 30, 2006. That's what I had in Cincinnati at Writers Retreat Workshop- the BEST TIME. It was the most wonderful community of writers, some published, some not yet, and a whole bunch of hilarious fun. I truly did not want to leave. It was also 57 degrees when I got off the plane and a good thing I had my jacket. Posted by...
