I often write about tourists. In fact, I'm working on something sort of touristy now. How to use the so varied personalities is difficult, incorporating them into the story, making them the fabric of a story. But how much fabric? that's the question. Reminds me of two Hemingway quotes: "The first draft of anything is shit." "There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit at a typewriter and bleed." Good quotes-huh? The last is probably my favorite-it is oh, so true.

My sister Mary Ellen, Daddy and me in 1967.
Never did like shoes. Liked to feel the tickling grass, the sand beneath my feet. So much easier climbing dunes when you're barefoot. Downside: stickers-they hurt. You always run the risk of getting hurt when you go barefoot.
QUOTE: Sensuality does not understand why everyone else is disturbed by her. As a young girl, she was often scolded for going barefoot. J. Ruth Gendler.
