Hey Nancy, I’m feeling cocky because I banged out a lot of words today, but I know myself… so if I get to 50,000, it will be a miracle!

Have a great time! I thought about setting a smaller goal for myself but my personal theme this year is to push myself harder than I usually do and overcome my innate tendency to do things halfway, so I’m determined to meet 50k!

Bravo Tina, but it would be cool to post some of this on the iA too. Just copy and paste some. I’m interested too in the progress your students make. 1000 words a day- excellent.

Hi Tina,
Glad to see you back here. Sorry it’s taken me so long to respond but tonight is the end of our tour and I’m breathing again, ready for my home life and our iAnthology coming.

I think your piece is so cool as you play with August from different points of your life. I love the contrasts. I can relate on both ends.

So many wonderful, rich lines in your writing:

Still, we bit our tongues and filled their water glasses for the eighth time while fondling the check holder and asking, “Are you all set with this?”

With our pockets full of fat bundles of twenties, we paraded down the main drag in our black pants and white shirts with loosened ties, looking for fun.

I suck the marrow out of every day, floating in lakes or the sea and staying up late to see the whole Red Sox game instead of just the first four innings.

I could go on, but then I’d just be copying and pasting your entire piece. Thanks for writing so vividly today. It was good inspiration for me as I sit down and get ready to write (myself).

I love the idea of this, feels very pre Twitter.

Thanks for hosting this wonderful adaptation of ‘day in a sentence’. I loved the night aspect and it is always so interesting to read what others experience. Thanks
