Wired, Again
Hallelujah! I now no longer need to rely upon my cellphone to do email. I'm now hooked up to Internet access (and cable TV) at home.
My class in New York City two weeks ago reminded me that if you want to be a good writer, you gotta write all the time.
When I was a newbie journalist, one of my teachers, Lou Cannon of The Washington Post, told me that you CAN learn to be a better writer (he was disputing an assertion that writers are born, not made). How? Practice, practice, practice.
Here's what film critic Roger Ebert has said about writing (from the May issue of the Southwest Airlines magazine "Spirit"): "Writing is just one way that I have survived thyroid cancer, four major surgeries and many complications. I love the process of writing itself. It affirms me and keeps me connected to people."
Amen.
