Green Room - Week 24 - Day 6

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

There is still a poll out there, http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/458636.html , to determine who will be moving on. People have been pointing out just how much fiction there is this week. Hopefully that's just how people decided to go with the topic rather than a general direction of the overall season/competition. I guess we will see how things shake out in the coming weeks.

I am currently reading the Bryson book "A Walk in the Woods" and just reached his visit to Centralia, Pennsylvania. More precisely, when he talks about the mine fire that started in 1962 and is still burning today.

If I didn't have to wait a season, I would make that a topic in and of itself, it's so interesting.

But since I have you here - what do *you* have burning, deep down inside? ;)

Until lately, I considered myself a primarily non-fiction writer who dabbled in fiction when all else failed. I'm proud of the ghost pieces I did, as well as the ode to my friend who died, the piece with Java...it's easier for me to like my non-fiction (as long as they aren't really sad, like my friend piece, I feel uncomfortable with sympathy...)

My ghost picture piece is probably one of my favorites. I hadn't expected it to go the way it had and I loved the direction it took :)
