Friday nights would be an excellent time to work on my novel. Instead, I've been lying on the couch while my kids time my cube solves with a stop watch. Complete waste of time or completely awesome? You be the judge.

Rubik's Cube and the Failed Novelist
Since I am a novelist headed toward failure, you'd think my New Year's resolution would have something to do with writing. Well, you'd be wrong. My resolution was to learn how to solve a Rubik's Cube in less than 1 minute. There is a Chinese baby that can solve it in less than 2 minutes, and the world record is somewhere around 6 seconds, so I figure with some moderate force of will and 365 days of practice time, I can land somewhere in the middle of those two.

ReplyDeleteEsteemed follower: I can understand why you can't wait for a new post from me. And I'm sure my next will be the highlight of your day. However, I cannot rush the creative process. I cannot fabricate inspiration. These things take time. Patience, my friend.
