The pictures looks exactly like the old Marta I knew from ISU. One can never drink too much coffee! And wha’t’s life without an obsession or two.

Like I said, there's a stupendous amount of potential there. As is, the <i>In Lake Belle</i> blog suggests almost -- well, not like a Spoon River Anthology exactly... more like... uh... You familiar with <i>Our Town</i>? The scenes at the cemetery, where the dead are talking back and forth among themselves? That's what <i>In Lake Belle</i> is like -- only the participants are alive. (If you'd rather not invite comments, btw, you might think about turning them off in your WordPress admin pages. Bet I'm not the only one who's visited and been tempted to role-play a new character.) Shortly after I joined Dennis's Ning thing, I read his post in which he discussed "What can I [i.e., Dennis] do for you?" In that post he talked about a member who had a network of blogs (words to that effect) but wasn't sure what to do with them. Later, when I came across your profile and first visited here, the light bulb went on over my head. I honestly do think it's a way-cool thing to do! Soonish is good. :) Good for you for thinking about it. Like I said, there’s a stupendous amount of potential there.

Part of my problem is that I feel I haven't figured out all that I want the other blogs to be. Dennis Cass gave me some suggestions about that in fact. I really want to spend more time on it--it does seem that that my writing has become a full-time job that I do in part-time hours and so only half of what I want gets done. I appreciate your reading and hope to have things better figured out soon. Or soonish. JES, I’ve been thinking about your comment a lot today.
