URBAN PRAIRIE

Just printed out the first two hundred pages of my sixth novel (Urban Prairie) at the library... the library only lets you print out 200 pages for free each month. See my rationale here? I print out the first two hundred pages in late July, then on Friday (Aug. 1st) I get to print out the other 117.

The life of a starving artist... Fun and romantic in theory; hell on earth in reality.

It did feel good, though, to see all those pages spill out of the printer with my writing on them.

Reminded me of a quote from John Fante's Ask The Dust:

 
"…I was restless, and I saw sentence after sentence marching across the page.”
