Welcome. I am a writer attempting to answer two questions. 1. Can you go home again? I'm writing a novel set in my childhood home of Juneau, Alaska. I have not lived here for nearly twenty-five years, but have always considered it my home. I say I've come to Juneau to complete my first draft and research details. But I also want to see what was just a dream and what is reality...oh, and just how damn weak I've become. 2. If given time and solitary space, will a writer write? Ah, yes, how many times a writer bemoans the lack of peace and quiet. But what will happen when the writer actually gets both of those things? Will she churn out a masterpiece? Or will she fall into an existence of cheese popcorn nibbling and web surfing? I have until the end of June to get something accomplished. Will I? This web site
is meant as a place for me to chronicle my search for answers
to both those questions and any other observations that come
up. It's a lazy way for me to keep my friends appraised as to
my progress, but anyone else is welcome to read. Because it is
a public page, I'll simply refer to myself as The Writer, and change any other
names I see fit to protect the innocent. |
| The site is now divided into two sections. The first covers my stay between March and June of 2001. The second part starts in November of 2001, carrying on until I run out of steam. |
