Turning the Page

I’m going to try something to get myself unstuck—a condition that has various reasons but one result: no posts for a very long time. For a while anyway, I’m exclusively going to post comments on something I’ve read—a book, an article, some kind of story. (Maybe I’ll allow a movie or a play; they’re “read,” too, after all.)

I need the focus and (loose) strictures. If I end up veering off track and writing about my life or my family or my travels, so be it. As long as I can get myself back to putting sentences together for their own sake and mine, with no audience or expectations in mind—the original goal of this blog back in 2005—I’ll be satisfied.
