I too have managed a scrawled note and have found a love for the voice to text phone features on my phone. I was moved by the reasons you write: "I write what's in my heart. I write what I want to remember. I write what I want to forget, but shouldn't." I know I always look forward to stopping by your bloc to see what you have to say.<br />CathyCathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08233792477358685156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-220390520594776250.post-28599648944246531732012-03-10T21:47:19.150-06:002012-03-10T21:47:19.150-06:00I love your answer to the last question.

I write to be a better teacher of writers. To struggle. To practice. To craft. To accomplish. I write because I am a writer." It's so poetic.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13806780584522995159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-220390520594776250.post-89249950687387813802012-03-09T23:39:49.238-06:002012-03-09T23:39:49.238-06:00Hi Michelle, I have finally some time to comment a...Hi Michelle, I have finally some time to comment a lot today & finally found you! This is a great idea & tells so much of 'how' many do this & 'what' happens as you do it. I giggled when you made the reference to your neglected husband. Also, what about neglected house, other tasks, etc.? I especially connected to your 'when' because I am always writing in my head, but do write on all those other things too. Fun, but engulfing! Happy slicing!Linda Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983144542632353870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-220390520594776250.post-335117836246705762012-03-09T20:34:07.700-06:002012-03-09T20:34:07.700-06:00Ooh, I love your "interview" with yourse...Ooh, I love your "interview" with yourself idea -- what a cute format, instead of just one long reflection. My favorite part was your list of "why"s... but I also loved the part about writing in the living room with your "neglected-feeling husband". That's what I'm doing right now! :-)JenniferMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09603450967368808356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-220390520594776250.post-53183254010856136852012-03-09T19:47:34.519-06:002012-03-09T19:47:34.519-06:00What a fun idea!!

I always love interviews with writers, and I thought that it was fun that you interviewed yourself for a slice. The responses provided so many glimpses into your writing life.

But so far I just sit down the night before and think of what I want to write and (so far) something pops into my head. Will be interesting to see how long that lasts and if/when it gets hard.Katherine Sokolowskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01613122879321312187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-220390520594776250.post-28011719803734138242012-03-09T06:12:39.909-06:002012-03-09T06:12:39.909-06:00I love your format.

He feels a bit neglected as I immerse myself in my writing.Darlene A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04573652162770888915noreply@blogger.com
