I know the AWP madness...and I can work myself up into a tizzy thinking I need to blog more, which has nothing to do with actually *wanting* to blog more. Sometimes I want to. Sometimes I don't. And when I do, the "be a person" mantra is a good one to keep by my desk, so I don't slip into thinking I have to recreate myself, writer a la writer *persona*... *To thine ownself be true* has never felt so important, here in my 40th year of living.Laura Didykhttp://lauradidyk.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4399027951667334371.post-29796586299225384992012-03-05T15:34:48.596-08:002012-03-05T15:34:48.596-08:00+1 Well said, Erin.+1 Well said, Erin.Joe/Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00041226430505291433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4399027951667334371.post-61902334504042630772012-03-05T10:01:37.988-08:002012-03-05T10:01:37.988-08:00You are such an amazing person. Thanks for sharing...You are such an amazing person. Thanks for sharing yourself with us in blog posts and books. As crappy as the web/FB/twitter world can sometimes be, it brings together people of like minds (and unlike as well). Without it, I would certainly miss having people like you in my life every day.Erinhttp://www.beingpoetry.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4399027951667334371.post-74066278444779525952012-03-05T09:50:34.211-08:002012-03-05T09:50:34.211-08:00person to person: thanksperson to person: thanksAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4399027951667334371.post-66787245855508165112012-03-05T09:35:49.285-08:002012-03-05T09:35:49.285-08:00Agree - 100%.
