Dialogue with my muse |
JOE: Good morning Calliope. CALLIOPE: Good morning Joe. Tell me about yesterday. JOE: As I expected, I had little time to work on anything. I had to shovel my way out to go visit my brother in Rochester who is here on his visit from Hawaii. CALLIOPE: What did he make of the snow? JOE: It's the first he's seen in two years. He seems fascinated. CALLIOPE: What else did you do? JOE: We spent most of the day visiting at my mother's house and my aunt's and ended up in a bookstore at night. CALLIOPE: Did you bring up your book in conversation? JOE: It came up a couple times and I shared my experiences and the book itself with a few people. CALLIOPE: How did you feel about doing it? JOE: A little strange. I waited for quite a while for it to come up in conversation which it finally did. CALLIOPE: What's your discomfort about? JOE: I feel like I am in a sales rather than social conversation. It feels a little awkward. Still I hate to miss an opportunity to tell people about my writing since it is the main focus of my life right now. CALLIOPE: Anything you can do about it? JOE: I don't think so. I wear several hats as most people do. I guess it's just part of life. Talk with you tomorrow. |
