A glorious morning here in Portland with skies somewhere between shades of Alice and Brandais blue. I never knew about Alice and Brandais, but lately I’ve been musing about the sky and the color blue and how I’ve run out of descriptors for this summer, the various shades in the heavens and our weather. But then I just learned my favorite shade of green is called celadon, so it’s time to get more precise because you gotta practice what you preach. For writers who want a huge palette of colors to choose from, you might want to bookmark this page.
Temperatures are heading into the 90s again and we’re supposed to hit 99 on Wednesday—naturally I’d planned a little soiree in my back yard. It might be time to whip up another batch of gazpacho.
But I digress—I wanted to announce that NPR is running another 3-Minute Fiction Contest. The first sentence must begin “The nurse left work at five o’clock.” While you're at the NPR site you might want to check out the previous winner and entries.
Keep writing, keep dreaming.
