Meet me at 3...don't be late.

I sat in Barnes and Noble yesterday in the early evening and read an interview on Alice Walker. She said if you want to write, well, what she does is she makes a tea date, as though a friend or associate were coming. And then she shows up. If you don't show up, why should the tea guest?

I feel eternal gratefulness for people who can take the abstract and anchor it to commonsense, commonplace.

A body of work, one teabag at a time.

Brilliant.
