Good Morning Cruel, Sad World
I will eat another piece of pumpkin pie
for breakfast--just you try to stop me!
Why do writers often italicize linking verbs?
As if all emphasis should be placed on "do."
I'm still trudging through _Swan_,
but as Shields tracks down the origins
of this manuscript
we discover just how "collaborative"
writing & publication is/can be.
Because I am such a conspiracy-theorist,
I completely buy into the idea that most writing
is collaborative--almost no line is pure . . .
Can you imagine what the next generation
might do with all of these
bits and pieces we call blogs?

MMn, pumpkin pie! If there's any in the house, I eat it for every meal until it is gone.
Good thing it's a seasonal food.
You still have pumpkin pie left? But, I agree - it does make for a good breakfast snack.
I must try the italicize thingy. Then I will be a true writer and my bits and pieces will be made into new blogs and books by the next generation..
