Today we’re celebrating: Writing the Moon, the Blog, is a day old.
It was a long gestation but an easy birth, thanks to some crucial help Friday evening from my friend Steve Bailey, whose blog www.touristfirst.blogspot.com is a gorgeous model. With the tools he showed me, I spent Saturday playing and coaxing mine into being and ended with a sense of a good day’s work.
If the posts seem out of time, they are. As the idea germinated last summer, I started experimenting. The first two, A Good Nose and Geese in Summer, were written in mid-July. A Goose in Winter and The Meaning of It All were added when it began to appear that birthing was near. That was February 13. I wrote another piece that evening called On Being Young and Egyptian, but it has been overrun by events in Libya. More about that later.
