Until last weekend, I hadn’t realized how tethered I was to my computer. We’d decided to go camping in the woods, and I had no choice but to be unplugged. I started to feel the itch after only a few hours out–not just the itch to check email, but just to see what was up online. So it was nice to get a little detox and just enjoy nature and be in the moment.
I came home yesterday to a ton of work, so please bear with me. I will answer your email soon.
And I’m also getting ready to go to the Bread Loaf Writers’ Conference, which I’ll be attending on a work-study scholarship, starting tomorrow. I’ll try to post occasionally from Vermont.
