Excellent!
Cathy Voisard replied to the discussion 'How do you know when an essay is done?' in the group Essay Writing
When I feel like I've just given birth....or when I feel as though I've just had sex and want a cigarette....or when I read it over and I smile....or when I start crying over my own words.
Cathy Voisard commented on the group 'Essay Writing'
Lorraine, I would say if that is the definition, then my blog is both a memoir AND a group of essays..... thank you!
Cathy Voisard commented on the blog post '10 Things I Learned about Writing in 2009'
What have I learned?
1. Blogging forces me to write consistantly, and writing consistantly makes me happy.
2. I started the blog when I lost my job a year ago, but I return to work tomorrow. I have learned that I need to make time to continue the…
Cathy Voisard commented on the group 'Essay Writing'
Thanks Lucille...I've been wondering that since I joined this group! Right now I'm writing a memoir blog...but to me, they are also little essays on a variety of topics. I just use the memoir genre to write them. And I've always…

Is this blog a seperate thing from SW, or is it part of the SW site?

Bernice L. McFadden said… - Dear Cathy:
You may not know me or my work, but I am the national bestselling, award winning novelist of six critically acclaimed novels who has been twice nominated for the Pulitzer Prize in Fiction.
On Jan 9th, 2010 my debut novel, SUGAR will celebrate its 10th anniversary and in order to commemorate this milestone I am campaigning to sell 10,000 copies between now and that date.
“Bernice L. McFadden's first novel begins with the brief, poetic description of a crime so startling that the reader is helplessly drawn in, as if a bright red door stood ajar on a bleak and forbidding house. Pearl Taylor's daughter, Jude, has been found murdered and mutilated near a field at the edge of town. "The murder had white man written all over it," writes McFadden. "But no one would say it above a whisper. It was 1940. It was Bigelow, Arkansas. It was a black child. Need any more be said?" In the years that follow, Pearl catches sight of Jude in so many strangers that when Sugar Lacey comes to town and sets up her unwholesome "business" in the house next door, she doesn't know whether to believe what she sees in Sugar's face: a striking similarity to Jude, dead 15 years. In her sedate but supple prose--rising at times to a light, unforced lyricism in the description of landscape or character--the author perfectly renders the closed and protective society of a small Southern town, the superstitions, gossip, and prying.”
I’m asking that you purchase a copy of SUGAR for yourself, a friend or family member. And yes, KINDLE purchases count.
If you could help spread the word by blogging, twittering and Face-booking my campaign, it would mean the world to me.
Peace & Light,
Bernice L. McFadden

- Hi Cathy,
I just read your blog- loved the post about maths. I freakily realised that I enjoyed maths when I went to university 10 years ago. I had to hold on to something to steady myself when I realised that I could understand the language of it. I have no idea how that happened.
I look forward to reading more of your stories.
