Blue Velvet! Wow. I haven't heard anybody mention that film in a long time. You are right. There is a lot of mood in it and it is creepy. My friends and I watched that movie so many times that we knew it word for word.

Setting the Mood

I'm in the process of rewriting. I have to focus on mood. I'm going to watch one of my favorite movies. Halloween. Even before Michael Myers gets to Hadonfield, you know something bad is going to happen, just by the quiet, tree-lined neighborhood. The big, single family homes, the sweet, adorable kids all about. I love the way that pictures pulls you in. It's slow, but it sets the mood perfectly, letting you know that something ugly is about to happen to that beautiful place. Does anyone else…See More

Hi Odessa, I just saw on one of the boards that you are thinking of self-publishing your next two books. Congrats on the anniversary of your first book, btw. I wanted to let you know part of my dream is to help people economically self-publish through my www.OneStopPublisher.com, however, if you are a do-it-yourselfer, I'm never opposed to sharing my templates or talking you through the experience....and talk is always free!

Yes. The story I'm reading on Friday is about my relationship with my mom. It's about 10 minutes and I'm feeling pretty good about it. I'm going to video tape it, but since the piece will be published in a small Zine, called Absent Cause, I may not put the video up until the Zine is published. I may read another essay, very short, called "Beer." Here's a link to it:

Thanks so much for asking. I'm glad your writing day is starting out well.

Recycling? Sounds fun. I know what you mean about squeezing out a page. Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one that ever happens to. But when you get that page, Man, oh, Man! Ain't nothin' like it.

I just started having a bit on fun with a character who is obsessed with recycling. It took all morning to squeeze out a page, but it's a good page.

Interesting about the main character and his job. Sound like you've got a good road ahead. I love it when I hit on an important "ah HA" moment in my writing.

Thanks, Laura. What's your Twitter handle and I'll add you to my follow list? I tried to post your post to Twitter but the She Writes site is pretty wonky and it wouldn't obey! It's a good post so maybe you can tweet it so it…
