Finished

I finished Queer Wing-ed tonight and I printed up a hard copy to send to my editor tomorrow

that only took ten years twelve if you count the two years I worried over Darger after first seeing his paintings at the Frye Art Museum in Seattle

But finished

















now what?

I suddenly feel wildly untethered

Love

I think that at least some amount of floating aimlessly while you get your bearings again is quite in order.

Oh congratulations! I think Mary is right, aimless floating and some basking in your accomplishments is definitely called for! Hooray and Huzzah!!

Mary I woke this morning with a space as open and wild as Montana in the 1950s in my head. I am luxurious as a big cat in the sun. In fact it’s after 9 am and I’m still in bed!
Love

Thank you dearest R. Indeed this feels monumental. I could not see an ending for myself for so long. I just had to wait in fullness for everything to come together. Love

Barbara thank you! I need to go to the post office to mail the paper copy to my editor today but other than that I have no plans. I don’t even feel like baking! I think I’ll enjoy this floating goodness and go dig up some more potatoes which are the most fun things to grow because each time I harvest them it’s like a treasure hunt.
Love

Dear Unknown I usually disappear anonymous comments but you are not anonymous just unknown and your message is so kind. Will you reveal yourself to me?
