  I'm finally getting somewheres with my Italy novel undertaking. What a joy, what a time-consuming chore.
Anyone interested in reading the first few pages? Of course, this is all very preliminary in structure. All sorts of freedom to flesh things out once I get some advice on how to actually write creatively. I've never tried writing more than self-indulgent erotic short stories. I've never taken a creative writing class. I've written bits of screenplays before. But nothing like this. Maybe one day I'll be working with Harcourt after all... from the other side.
I found out tonight that there's a lesbian writers group that meets once a month at the Center in Hillcrest. I think I'll go. And ask Lindsey if she has been there, being the one who told me about it through a group mailing.
