It's been 7 days since the event started, people all over the world trying to get the book in them out on pages. Since starting, I realized that my experience with writing has been as more of a columnist than anything. Even my college papers had that kind of feel.

So right now, my stuff feels kind of wooden. I haven't been able to reach the organic taproot in my psyche that will let the dams burst. I will trudge on, however, and hope that my control mechanism lets loose.

Good luck to anyone else out there that might be doing this, too. It's a bitch.
