The Crown of Creation

Times for Crown of Creation meetings changed to Sunday April 26 from 7-8 AM and Monday April 27 from 7-8 AM US Mountain (UTC-7)

Two Crown of Creation meetings planned. Sunday April 26 from 6-7 PM and Monday April 27 from 5-6 PM. Both times are US Mountain (UTC-7)

Good night all. Hopefully there will be a few more joiners at the next sporadic meeting of the crown of creation. Peace!

Maybe I'll get a self-hypnosis CD so I can chill out. I'm too high strung.

Tonight's horror is the fact that I'll probably end up dining on Taco Bell.

Y'all got 20 minutes to jump into the fray. So far me myself and I are having a jolly olde tyme.

The chapter details the meeting of one of my secondary character's (Patrick, the husband of Terry, the protagonist) parents. Not a terribly horrific segment by any means. But it lets you know a bit about them.

All right, here is a note about the creative process. I've been doing a great job on my most recent chapter, if I do say so myself. I didn't expect it to be this involved.

I'm getting an Ipod so I can have some tunes when I'm doing my walks. Tried it with CD's but I bounce too much and they skip.

I used to exercise like crazy. I'd go to the gym for about 3 hours a day, four or five days a week. It was overkill. I never learned to eat properly.

Got a little distracted. Registered for e-diets. Supposedly all the meals are made fresh and a weeks' worth will be delivered to me next Thursday. Right now, I'm starving!

I need to go out and buy water tonight. The water in my town sucks. It actually causes stomach issues. I have to go to the "Water Mill" to buy purified water. It isn't that expensive. Its kind of funny though. The tap water in the surrounding towns is ok, just not here.

Does anyone else find the "Progressive Auto" lady to be an annoying lunatic?

This has nothing to do with creative works, but I think that "Alli" stuff sounds like a raw deal. Nothing like an oily shart while trying to make a first impression on people at a book signing, eh? Sounds like a tale for poopreport.com

Actually, I'm pretty flipping hungry right now. They say its never a good idea to shop when you're hungry. I tend to have trouble working when I'm really hungry.

As I am currently the only member of this room--no takers yet--I'll hie off and see about ordering some things. Am planning to try the e-diets program.

I had initially thought to have these readings every Wednesday night, but scheduling stuff "in stone" that way doesn't really work for my somewhat chaotic life. I think I'll just announce them as they happen.

Not that there's anything wrong with living in a mobile home per se. I think what sucks more is to still be living paycheck to paycheck. How does one resolve the dichotomy between staying true to one's dreams and not having to scrape to get by?

Thinking about the whole "starving artist" thing. Perhaps this sort of thing has its charm when one is in one's twenties. Sort of like the belief that you can live on love. Such a view becomes pretty shopworn when one is in one's forties and finds oneself living in a mobile home.

5 minutes till the meeting. If anyone else joins in that will be great. If not, practice for me. I'll babble on, maybe brainstorm something, who knows.

The first meeting will be at 9 PM Mountain time tonight, Wednesday January 14 2009 and will last for an hour. This is a very informal place. For anyone interested, we will try to encourage each other, help each other through creative blocks, offer CONSTRUCTIVE critiques of one another's work, etc.

Life is boring without creativity. Let's make it a little more interesting.
