I've decided to finish the NaNoWriMo I began (and mostly wrote, not thoroughly that's a different modifier entirely) in 2023. In all honesty, I have burnt edges on my fingers and my thoughts.
But in the meantime, it seems like writing a poem a day would do wonder, quite literally, to worlds. No story well-told goes well without wonder, anyhow.
And despite words, there's nothing very literal about a whole story, da? It's layers that can be faintly iterated, never literated: Letter only set a stage; and that stage is rounded by sleep, the place we remember, if we've forgotten, that hearts and stories are neither literal nor linear. Paradoxically, they still have their exits and entrances.
--
it isn't in me, say
he puts down pennies, a piece of clay
counter-clatter, nails chewed back--
to pay.
A regal lack.
Stacked.
Copper mossed, grey, say
I tell him,
if you can't pay--
But he takes it all back,
scrambled rattled ring
into his pockets, drops it--
at least half--
And I close the shop that day,
and the ferry at the back.
Say, have you watched the river
roll away
of late
to Hades.
I like to tell the poets
how much it costs. Say
I like to know it
makes them put the
drama
on
a
page.

Dust if you must, by Rose Milligan (September 1998)
Dust if you must, but wouldn't it be better
To paint a picture, or write a letter,
Bake a cake, or plant a seed;
Ponder the difference between want and need?
Dust if you must, but there's not much time,
With rivers to swim, and mountains to climb;
Music to hear, and books to read;
Friends to cherish, and life to lead.
Dust if you must, but the world's out there
With the sun in your eyes, and the wind in your hair;
A flutter of snow, a shower of rain,
This day will not come around again.
Dust if you must, but bear in mind,
Old age will come and it's not kind.
And when you go (and go you must)
You, yourself, will make more dust.
I have mixed feelings about Milliganâs advice. Awhile back I posted a poem, I think by Kai Tempest, about the way boys push their friends to take greater and greater risks while girls shame their friends into conformity. Someone reposted with the observation that not all girls avoided BMX bikes ( I think the poster had a broken knee at the time?) and maybe the boys were not better off being goaded into more and more dangerous behavior.
I was really glad to see the response, because advice is like a shoe. If it doesn't fit, don't wear it. When people ask me for writing advice, I usually start thereâ that only they can know what advice is good *for them.* For example, as someone committed to stopping to smell the flowers, and therefore constantly behind on everything, I should probably pay more attention to Brittany Spears.
But I find the anti-dusting advice to be insidious in a particular way. It implies that dusting isn't important and doesn't actually need to be done, and by extension, all that work, the laundry, the dishes, the vacuuming, that prevent women from writing, that work isn't worth doing either.
It puts the blame on women for wasting their time on dusting, when they could be doing something that was actually important. Like writing.
Stopping to smell the flowers is great, but you know what else is great? Having food on the table for your kids when it's dinner time. Do I think it's okay to skip meals when I'm writing? Sure, I often do. Did I do that when I had little kids? I did not.
Do I think "women's work" should consume a woman's life? I do not. Do I think that work is important? I do, I really do.
We say "all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy," but we don't tell Jack to just blow off his job. Instead we get the incessant worst case scenario: Starving Artist, Starving Artist, Starving Artist.
It's only women's work that is so trivial that you should just stop doing it and write instead and that, I think, is wrong.

YOU WANNA LEARN ELVISH?! HERE YA GO!
is this legit?
This is legit. My husband, sitting across the room, looks over and says, âIS THAT SOMEONE SHOWING HOW TO CONVERT ENGLISH TO TENGWAR? Â BECAUSE THATâS THE WAY!â
Believe this man. Â He owns atlases of Middle Earth, the complete history of Midle Earth (leatherbound), and has read the books at least 150 times. Â Also: speaks elvish.
Yes.
For future reference. :)

My Latest: Eating Lies, Ideas, or Food?
You hit the grocery aisle, and you donât see food. You see ideas. Judgments upon judgments. Far from finding what you need â food â you meet disembodied voices painting pictures of YOU when you pick up a product. Youâll shine. Youâll glow. You be guilt-free (and grain-free, imagine that). You feel like a dry creek bed when the monsoon season hits; but itâs your stomach thatâs dry and empty, notâŚ

Donât be more serious than God. God invented dog farts. God designed your bodyâs plumbing system. God designed an ostrich. If He didnât do it, He permitted a drunken angel to do it. Empirical facts can add significantly to the meaning of âbeing godlikeâ.

A Cure For Celiac?
A Cure For Celiac?
Published in Gluten Free and More Magazine, I discuss what curing celiac may look like. Is it possible? Is the cure near? Or is dealing with the present just as, if not more, important?
Anya is 5. She is gluten-free and dairy-free, and like most children facing the âwhy can they have candy and I canâtâ agony of early diagnosis, she had a hard time this Easter. âYou can still be happy at Easter,ââŚ
