Anyway, he NEVER calls me so I was surprised and he said he read my blog and totally understood your woes. And mine, too. He suggested a book called The War of Writing, or something like that (I have it written down somehwere) because it talks about this "stuck" mode. Anyway, it was a blog-connected moment and I was excited about the cosmic force of it all and here you are suggesting reading the same type of book. He said the book her read really helped him. The author of the book also pretty much wrote that anyone reading this book is not doing what they should be doing, which is writing, and are merely using his book as a way to procrastinate their writing. <br><br>I thought that was funny. <br><br>I've already ordered it from borders.com.a pinkroomhttp://apinkroom.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3465642626648012553.post-22619951537234235952008-04-16T16:54:47.000-04:002008-04-16T16:54:47.000-04:00Brian, I am very impressed....married only 3 years...Brian, I am very impressed....married only 3 years and you already know the right things to say!<br><br>However, I think the book should be titled "How to Write a Dissertation in Two Semi-Procrastinated Years!” :-)momnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3465642626648012553.post-65285953142050090222008-04-16T15:50:08.000-04:002008-04-16T15:50:08.000-04:00She's right.
