Hemingway- thanks for the advice

Never go on a trip with anyone you don't love.

Man is not made for defeat.

I know now that there is not one thing that is true - it is all true.

All of our words from loose using have lost their edge. (love this!)

All modern American fiction comes from Mark Twain's Huckleberry Finn.

The shortest answer is doing the thing.

- Thank you Papa Hemingway, for the re-inspiration. I have started and finished a few short stories and hope to make them actually bound and "out" some time the next year, even if by my own doing. Writing is the best form of expression still. It's less crass as texting, facebooking, less filtered as blogging, and just as honorable as any respectable art form.
