Blogorrhea JuniorBooks, Book Arts, Writing, & General Mischief in NYCCatching up: Miscellania- June 28, 2008 I am, obviously, way behind on, well, everything right now. I can probably blame some of that on my new blog, which I've been compelled to write in just about every day. The class I'm teaching, even though it's only...http://leekottner.typepad.com/blogorrhea_ii/2008/06/miscellania.html George Carlin, 1937-2008, RIP- June 23, 2008 George Carlin, one of my heroes, has died at the age of 71way too young for such a free spirit and incisive observer of the absurdities of life and language. Fitting that he was recently honored with the Mark Twain...http://leekottner.typepad.com/blogorrhea_ii/2008/06/george-carlin-1.html Consoli-datin'- June 22, 2008 Once again, I've spent most of a day updating and fiddling with my various web presences. You may notice I've dropped a couple of things out of this blog's sidebar, and that the sidebars of Dowsing have grown exponentially, or...http://leekottner.typepad.com/blogorrhea_ii/2008/06/consoli-datin.html Working, for a Change- June 20, 2008 Hey peeps, sorry I've been AWOL for a while. I've actually been working in one form or another and moonlighting on my other blog for a bit. So between writing lessons plans for a new class I've never taught before...http://leekottner.typepad.com/blogorrhea_ii/2008/06/working-for-a-c.html In Dreams Begin . . . Mashups- June 11, 2008 I remarked earlier that I'm a vivid dreamer, and a lot of my story ideas come from dreams. Like most people, my most lucid ones, the ones I remember most often, are the ones I have in the morning, right...http://leekottner.typepad.com/blogorrhea_ii/2008/06/in-dreams-begin.html I Can Has New Blog- June 8, 2008 I've spent much of this hot stinking day setting up a new blog, called Dowsing: Finding a New Way to Believe. I'll let it explain itself, but Rob and I had an interesting discussion about spinning off another blog for...http://leekottner.typepad.com/blogorrhea_ii/2008/06/i-can-has-new-b.html Conspiracy Theory: The NYT Book Review Version- June 6, 2008 I don't know why I keep reading the NYTimes Book Review with its crappy record of ignoring women's writing (when it's not outright belittling it). I guess I keep hoping that, magically, one day that will change. Then I remind...http://leekottner.typepad.com/blogorrhea_ii/2008/06/conspiracy-theo.html No Longer a Michigander or, American English- June 6, 2008 Well, it looks like my going-on-25-years in New York City has finally eradicated my Midwestern accent, or so one of those online tests says. I am now not from anywhere. I am the woman without a region, a citizen at...http://leekottner.typepad.com/blogorrhea_ii/2008/06/no-longer-a-mic.html Moonlighting- June 4, 2008 I have a wee little post over here on the inimitable Jennifer Ouellette's Cocktail Party Physics, on the World Science Festival's "The Brain and Bourne." Jen got me a free ticket (I love impersonating the Press) to a showing of...http://leekottner.typepad.com/blogorrhea_ii/2008/06/moonlighting.html |
