This is what a one-woman Writer’s retreat looks like. Scrawls in a yellow legal pad, doomed attempts at organization in 3-ring binder, Red Currant candle (this is key) spaghetti for dinner 4 nights in a row and tonight (my last night here) big honkin’ glass of rose. #keepingitreal

Took a little stroll through the mountainside meadow. Just wish I could capture a pic of the gaggle of hummingbirds gorging at the feeder on the deck. #mountainmantra

Sure was glad I showered and dressed by 10 today–when a sweet mountain neighbor dropped off these gorgeous veggies from his garden. Now if he also made cheap Chardonnay—I could get used to this life!

Today’s weather forecast from my mountain retreat: cloudy with a chance of fiction. Highs: tight pacing, witty dialogue. Lows: plodding narrative, cliched adjectives, bouts of unnecessary inner angst.

Traffic jam on the way to work this morning. Honeybees, butterflies and hummingbirds were bumper-to-bumper on this limelight hydrangea outside my bedroom window. #bliss
