a tiny thing that made me laugh today

thinking about writing a lot, recently (obviously), and so today was thinking about an article I had read online somewhere about kurt vonnegut and a term paper assignment he once gave students. I found the link (here) which was as lovely as I remembered, but in the process I also found an image of a letter vonnegut wrote to one of his peers back in the '60s. He was writing to someone hired to teach at the Iowa writer's workshop. My favorite line: "Every so often you will go nuts. All of a sudden the cornfields get you."

humans are so interesting, all the time. a challenge for this day - pay attention.
