If I stumble into a dry spell, where new writing just isn't flowing, I'll take up an old piece and try to rework it or try writing something in another form. For example, if I'm stumped on a poem, I'll turn to prose or a blog post or something to get the muscle moving again. If you write every day, which I try to do, the muscle stays nimble and ready. If you don't work the muscle, it will atrophy like any other. If I'm too busy with the distractions of every day life to write anything substantial, I'll jot down a few notes or write a letter. Anything to keep the writing muscle active.(less)

My Year in Writing 2025

A trend that’s continued this year: I’ve continue to be very Berkshire-focused as we approach the fourth anniversary of our move up here. As I told one of my students at Berkshire Community College this semester, where I’ve been teaching Principles of Marketing, filling in for
