Writers as Gardeners

 Boo-Boo baby watched the Academy Awards and felt the same way I did about it.

Bor-ing!  Sorry.  Boring, boring, boring!  And I love Jon Stewart but it's just not funny this year.  Maybe the writers have the same problem I do when I'm trying to get back to work after a writing hiatus- I write lots and lots of crap until I finally get back in the groove and write, well, somewhat better stuff.

So, while the Academy Awards are on in the background, I am tilling up my "writer's" garden plot and preparing it for a new book.  The seeds have been planted.  The ground is warming up and tomorrow I will sit down at the computer to begin the actual process of writing- hoping to "raise" a new novel.

It's been awhile, so I'll probably write a good deal of stinky prose.  That is truly a good thing.   What's a garden without a load of fertilizer?
