THE WRITE STUFF

Idealess
He confessed
"Help me!"

"Help yourself," I said

How?

Go for a walk
Hear the silence
Talk to strangers
Listen to music
Go to a museum
Walk in a storm
View a new baby

Meet a recent hero
Write his story
Go! Now! Write!
It's Your
Best Seller
Congratulations!!!

A TIDY LIFE

Perfectly tidy! Habit of a lifetime!

Spotless bathroom, spotless kitchen--everything immaculate!

Ten pillow cases around his head to catch the bits of brain, bone, and blood. The gun already in his mouth.

Even the silence was tidy.

Then there was almost a noise.

And nothing was tidy anymore.
