Quote

"I got to thinking about the point
in every freelancer's life where he
has to decide whether he wants to A,
have a social life and do art in his
spare time, or B, do art and have a
social life in his spare time. It has
always seemed to me that if you have
any hope of making a living as an artist
- writer, musician, whatever - you absolutely
must learn to tell people to leave you
alone, and to mean it, and to eject
them from your life if they don't respect
that. This is necessary not because
your job is more important than anyone
else's - it isn't - but because a great
many people will think of you as not
having a job. 'Oh, how wonderful - you
can work whenever you want to!' Well,
yes, to a point, but generally 'whenever
you want to' had better be most of the
time, or else you won't have a roof
over your head."

| Say a little prayer for my good
friend, Ruth, who is battling cancer.
She's doing well in chemo right
now, but being ill has surely sapped
her writing energy. The doctors
are hoping to knock The Big C out
of her system and restore her to
good health. |

Lori

|
|

|
|

Bill's
Gun Club in Robbinsdale, Minnesota,
was the site of scary doings this
weekend. The Book Addicts went out
to target shoot. |

|
| Jessie
and Lori load up magazines for Jessie's
Glock and Lori's Beretta. |

it was only her second time on a range,
she shot the hell out of her targets. |

had a pretty decent night of accuracy
as well, and we had a LOT of fun! |
