In the light of a 40 watt Moon





There is an odd collection of things gathered where I write.  Sometimes they provide inspiration, other times they are simply distractions.  All of this, of course, is influenced by the weather just outside the window.

Perched atop the bookcase is a hawk.  She surveys all that is fit to print.  At the far end of the same bookcase sits a scavenger crow, swooping down occasionally to pick at the dead punctuation, the result, no doubt, of a run-on sentence.

I remember glancing at her yesterday as she was tugging at a dangling participle.  It was gross.


If you're wondering about the title of this post...
All I can say is that it remains important, the type and amount of light you are working under.  For in the wrong light - a tube of sunscreen could easily be confused with a tube of toothpaste.





It's not funny.
