Meeting-ed Out

I spent most of the day in end-of-term meetings at school. Not that the meetings were uninteresting -- they weren't -- but they did leave me feeling kind of drained and not especially creative. So when I got home, I could have taken a nap or vegged on the couch, but no, not me... instead I started working on a book review I have to do for the Montreal Gazette. It's about this book called NovelAbout My Wife by New Zealand author Emily Perkins. It's a disturbing, but extremely well written book. One of the things I like best about it is that Perkins writes from the male point of view and her narrator really sounds like a guy. He's even a bit of a male chauvinist!! Anyway, the best thing about writing that review is it got me back into writing mode. Tomorrow is a wide open writing day. YIPPEE! FICTION, HERE I COME!!

Wow... I'd almost forgotten about school (!), but I have 2 meetings tomorrow morning at work. I agree that they're not the most inspiring activities... especially that, in my case, I barely understand what's going on. Have fun writing tomorrow (well, that was today, so hope you have a wonderfully creative day!! )!
