Writing on the subway

I had forgotten how much I love writing on the subway. I use my PDA and write in graffiti while I’m waiting for the train, then on the train as well. Sometimes I only get a couple of sentences, other times, an entire scene. I think about the story when I’m walking to the station. It’s great.

I got four chapters of Shades of Milk and Honey rewritten while I was in NYC working on the monkeys. I was going to wait until I had a larger stockpile, but I think I’m going to go ahead and start posting them now.

Let me know if you want me to email you the first thirteen chapters, the plot changes start with Chapter Fourteen, which is what I’m going to post next.

    Dear Mary,
    I have been enjoying “Shades of Milk and Honey” and will be looking forward to further chapters. I have a problem though. I lost the password somewhere in the folds of cyberspace and don’t recall what it is. Would you please send it to me again?

    I enjoy reading your blog and following your many adventures. You have such talent and wonderful positive energy! I don’t know how you keep up with all your projects, writing, entertaining, travel, etc. I am impressed!

    Aloha,
    PBI

    I’m still twitching waiting for the final chapters. I cannot wait to see what happens next :)
    I love the subway systems, love and miss them in every way.

    ACK! I realized I no longer have the password either. So so sad. Help?
