The Beautifullest Tree

VCCA is a nice place-- lots of natural beauty and yesterday I went blackberry picking. I ma having some trouble settling in, but I think it's because I don't have enough to do. In a way, this is a high-class problem-- being so far along on the manuscript that the work isn't dragging me out of bed in the morning and keeping my locked in my studio. Team-T is weighing in with their comments and although they are by and large positive, there's still work to be done. For some reason, I just don't feel like doing it.

But enough about me. Let me tell you about VCCA (and of course there are photos). There are about 25 people here-- writers, visual artists, and composers. I've got my own bedroom and bath. I've also got studio space, which is essentially an office. The food is pretty tasty, particularly the dessert situation. (That pound cake last night was the TRUTH!)

My mind is wandering, I must admit. I just don't feel like doing anything. I want to be in NYC hanging out with my friends. I can't tell if it's because I don't want to be done with the manuscript, so I am avoiding finishing or if this roadrunner has just run herself out.
