“It is absurd to think that the only way to tell if a #poem is lasting is to wait and see if it lasts. The right reader of a good poem can tell the moment it strikes him that he has taken an immortal wound—that he will never get over it.”

#RobertFrost (1874–1963)

Editing short film today. It has to be plain and simple but I’m tempted to fancy it up with text and voice over. I might make two copies. One for me and one for Peace Collective as contracted to.

Writing like a master today. Well, trying to anyway. Like copying old masters when painting, I’m copying extracts of good writers to experience the flow, action, pace, tension, vocabulary etc. Just one hour a day. Interesting exercise. #nabokov #colllins #tolkien #hemingway

A statue of President Trump holding Jeffrey Epstein's hand has been reinstalled this afternoon, just over a week after it was removed from the National Mall in Washington, D.C.

Been submerged in poetry formatting. Also reading classics to help own fiction practice. Dialogue is never long enough and sometimes description is too thin. I’ll master it. Still don’t recognise my own style. It must be there. Qigong this morning. Pilates missed due to nap. Will have to do later🤸

Analyzing #Hemingway and #London this afternoon-Hills Like White Elephants-To Build A Fire. They show and tell at the same time. Studying Masters of the Page to provide a bit of relief from my own writing and to steep the mind in quality.
