So, the VRBO I’m staying in right now has about four books on the shelf, and one of then is Ernest Hemingway’s collected short stories. I’m reading “The Snows of Kilimanjaro” for the third or fourth time in my life. I thought of it when I read this line in your piece:

“Why rush the words? After all, the easiest way to be done is never to have started.”

As the man in “Snows” lay dying, he laments all he never sat down to write.

Which is to say your writing really resonates today. As always! Thank you.

Chris jones book is absolutely the epitome for me. The Swine Republic allows me to try to mimic Harriet Tubman. In the sense. Do not give up….. I have this fantasy that actually life is this game. and we are team players. And I am on Chris team. When I give someone Chris book and they understand. Our team makes a touchdown. When chris wrote the book. He provided me with the information. If only people knew. This is not all gloom and doom. Hey thanks for publishing the book. All teamwork.
