Things My Wife Actually Said

On the subject of polygamy (paraphrased from a recent conversation):

"I’d be ok with you having another wife. So long as she does all the cleaning, takes care of the kids, doesn’t eat much or require expensive cloths, is willing to live in a tent in the backyard and isn’t interested in sex."

Surprisingly, no mention was made of looks so I guess my second wife can still be good looking as long as she fulfills the requirements above.

Daily Writing Exercise

I’ve been doing too much reading and too little writing for the past month or so. In an effort to correct this I went online looking for some writing exercises. I found the website of Michelle Richmond, the author of several books and a teacher of creative writing at California College of the Arts. She has a daily writing exercise as part of her website, which I plan on taking advantage of. I’ve added the link to her site on the right and maybe I’ll post some of the things I end up writing here.

Michelle, on extremely slim chance you somehow find this BLOG and object to me taking advantage of your daily writing exercises, please let me know and I will remove all references..
