On the benefits of a writing group meeting in person
Writing group meets in person today, as opposed to the usual MSN Messenger thing. This happens every couple of months or so. I prefer the in person meetings for two reasons. The first is that we almost always manage to get more accomplished; all communication seems to become a little clearer (even for writers, sometimes instant messaging just doesn’t cut it). The second and most important reason is that near where we meet there is a coffee shop that sells enourmous slices of a very high quality carrot cake with real cream cheese icing at an affordable price. Delicious. And filling.
One might argue that “filling” is not necessarily a desirable quality in a dessert. In this particular case, I disagree.

I’ll pick up the carrot cake this time. As usual, two pieces for you!
Well, to be fair, I never *actually* get two pieces for myself, so much as I always get a piece for Camille who either doesn’t want any carrot cake at all, or only eats half.
That’s so not fair! I ate the whole piece this time!
Not to be a bitch, but I was sadly disappointed by the lack of icing on my piece. Two thumbs down!
Incidentally, Andy, could you please change the link on your blogroll to read “Without Really Trying” instead of Jordan Lapp? tx.
You’re welcome,
Thanks Bigham! I’m trying to corner the phrase in Search Engines
