I feel like I'm moving in slow motion but I read another fifty pages from Packet 2 for the workshops in my MFA program residency at Ashland University, chose my book for my book presentation, and completed several more reviews. I also almost finished reading "The Situation and the Story" by Vivian Gornick. She makes several good points about organizing your memoir based on memory. I've compiled my source materials so far--memoirs, books similar to mine, and writing books and I already have 25 on the list. I've had some ideas to add to my memoir that should help the opening. I've two ideas for the class exercise. The last thing on the list will be the book presentation. It will be the start of my comparison between 2 or 3 of the memoirs read so far. It will be good to move some of my stack to the shelf again and open up space.
Today I also joined some of the Ashland University sites. I still need to track down a problem with my email and another one with my ticket. I had all the bills paid until a day ago, and also solved some of my banking difficulties. Now just to test the printer and other supplies.
We're still playing get the yard back in order after Germany while also gathering supplies for our trip to the Amazon in Peru. We need rubber boots, protection against mosquitos and expensive rabies shots and new glasses and sunglasses.
