I feel...well, what's opposite of bee littled - <br />bee bigged? <br /><br />Here is a favorite quotation of mine: "Increasingly I have felt that the art of writing is itself translating, or more like translating than it is like anything else. What is the other text, the original? I have no answer. I suppose it is the source, the deep sea where ideas swim, and one catches them in nets of words and swings them shining into the boat ... where in this metaphor they die and get canned and eaten in sandwiches." <br />Ursula Le GuinJulie https://www.blogger.com/profile/12811523890920763782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-824466663015731028.post-316695603812760122009-05-03T09:11:00.000-04:002009-05-03T09:11:00.000-04:00Great poem and great quote for the changing from A...Great poem and great quote for the changing from April to May.

Great quote from L'Engle, too. <br /><br />I'll leave you with one of my favorite Madeleine L'Engle quotes: <br /><br />"You have to write the book that wants to be written.
