Tackling the 3/1/52 Challenge

A couple weeks ago, I learned via an article in Writer's Digest about Ray Bradbury's 3/1/52 challenge. As stated in the article, the challenge has two components:
read 3 short works every night (a poem, an essay, and a short story), AND
write 1 short story every week for 52 weeks.

I'm the type who ignores trendy challenges. But this one struck a chord. While a voracious reader, I've never been a pro Read more of this blog post »

DNF. I got through the first five essays and gave up. I found it not funny, and yet another example of a writer who mistakes profanity for comedy.

This is an excellent general history of the American Revolution. It focuses mainly on the events leading up to the war, with the usual emphasis on Boston and Massachusetts. Well-written and entertaining, highly recommend it.

Roger Cottrell Hi Eric,
I see you've read THE HUNGER by SCOTT NICHOLSON. He's a friend of mine on MYspace - by which I meant I ACTUALLY communicate withe the guy.
Thanks for the friendship on Goodreads,
ROGER


Jeannie Faulkner Barber Hey Eric, what an interesting last name, but I'm sure you've heard that before. Thanks for the add. If you have time, I'd love for you to visit my web site, www.jeanniebarber.com. I'm a novice writer so feel free to make any kind of suggestions, ideas or thoughts to correct it. I’m co-authoring a novel with Patty Wiseman, another friend on Goodreads. We’ve known each other for over 30 years. While you're there, please sign the guestbook, too! There’s also a link to our book you can click on…clairkelley@synthasite.com. This site is brand new and in the editing stage as is our story. Please visit it as well. We’re both very green, but we’ve met so many people on this site willing to reach out and offer advice or a guiding hand.
Thanks,
Jeannie
