Don't Beat Yourself Up
It's summer, okay?
If you didn’t write this weekend, cut yourself some slack…
It’s 100+ degrees (Fahrenheit) here, and the blueberries have all ripened at the same time, and unless I get them picked they’ll attract our local bear, and we’ll have a resident bear pooping what look exactly like granola bars all around the place for another three months.
Tomorrow is Hindsight Story Night. Karyn and I are experimenting with a GoPro, and we’ll begin to tape willing writers beginning tomorrow. Everyone is welcome to read, and we’ll ask whether or not you’d like to be recorded and posted here.
No pressure. You’re free to decline. But don’t pass up a chance to test your work on a live audience.
Now, back to those blueberries.
Okay, darling. Where are you going to be posting the GoPro footage? Who's going to own it? Will people in the room be in the background? Is there a way to avoid being in the background? How will this impact publishing rights (since "posting" constitutes "publishing")? Will there be a microphone? Or are we counting on the camera to pick up sound? Just trying to figure out if I should wear false eyelashes. ;) Sorry to be the mom. But, you know, I'm the mom.
Also, if you want to drop off blueberries, I'm just saying.
