Nico & Vinz - Am I Wrong?
I heard this song about a year ago but it didn't quite register at the time. As I was painting the bathroom last month, I heard this song a few times on the radio. It finally entered the grey matter and took hold. Enjoy!

What Can I Say?
I spent yesterday and today revising my short story, Clara Betta. I've sent it to a couple of trusted readers but I'm ready to send it out to a literary magazine very soon. It feels good.
Now it's time to go face my novel again. I almost restarted revising today but I lost my nerve.
Instead, I faced a box of soaked files. A couple of weeks ago my basement flooded. I was able to shred five years worth of paperwork. It made me aware that I could get rid of more stuff. I have that bug again as I was going thru it all.
I found pages of my time as a sales rep and all the background with my transfer. I didn't realized I've been carrying that around for so long. As I was reading through the material all of the old anger came back up for me. It's amazing that I've never really let that go. Good Lord!! After I ripped the pages up I promised myself that I was letting it all go.
I also finished Sarah Waters, The Paying Guests. I really enjoy her writing. I shlepped that 500+ page hardcover back and forth for weeks. It's interesting that since I know her writing, I was anticipating a twist in her story. And when the obvious twist didn't happen, it was a surprise. The ending was bittersweet.
