I am a Kentucky mountain girl far from home, perhaps far from the girl years. Still, my heart longs to return to the top of Low Gap mountain and peer off into the distance; to see the hills rolling and tumbling out before me, and the wind ruffling the trees' leaves, causing them to ripple like waves in some immense pond.

Making Plans for Getting There
I sat quietly today in my writing room as it began to get cooler from the installation of the air conditioning unit so recently put into the window. I looked around and I nodded because I was thinking, I don't have to worry about how this looks to most of the world, just to me. Then it hit me, it hit me hard: I want my writing room to be as pretty as possible, as well as organized. It isn't as organized as I would like it to be. In fact, it isn't organized at all. Still, life looks good again without feeling sick and the novel will progress forward tomorrow. Sometimes I like sitting and just planning what course I am going to take next. I think everyone does really at some point or another - because at some point or another you need to know where you're going just to make sure you know when you get there.
