I've never heard it put that way, but of course I've felt it.laura b.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15086009761943858915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35934196.post-43409413650132972562010-04-08T23:21:55.423-05:002010-04-08T23:21:55.423-05:00Rel, Sometimes my name should be Mary.

...Rel, Sometimes my name should be Mary. Heh, heh.<br /><br />Mrs, I think it's something we all feel. Sometimes it's a comfort, and sometimes it's disheartening.<br /><br />Ananda, I doubt you'll ever be isolated. You're going to be with your man and people seem to gravitate to you wherever you are. Plus, all of us bloggers will be there with you.<br /><br />Booda, Most of what I write on here are just very rough drafts of something I haven't quite figured out yet. Usually, something will pop into my head while I'm running, and I'll just spew it out on the page here. I have delusions of collecting all the writing exercises up and honing them and figuring out what the hell I'm going to do with them. I just haven't figured out when that will be yet.Churlitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05018288474865559384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35934196.post-75054440944134590902010-04-08T20:18:25.176-05:002010-04-08T20:18:25.176-05:00Whee!

The writing of a woman doing home remodeling projects! :)<br /><br />Actually, I get a much better picture of a girl's isolation from the Redwood Motel paragraph. I would like some leeetle indication about how she feels about it. Feeling chronically isolated isn't necessarily a bad thing. The motel might be dingy and desolate, but those might be conditions someone feels protective about. I just can't tell. <br /><br />Is this a creative non-fiction exercise? <br /><br />It's really a good story, isn't it? Why yes. It is!!booda babyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09424036488795599663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35934196.post-21659950899400161452010-04-08T19:20:02.818-05:002010-04-08T19:20:02.818-05:00Alienation... that is what I fear most about my up...Alienation... that is what I fear most about my up-coming move! That disconnected isolation of knowing few if any. How well you tell it! Strikes a nerve for me, Churlita. But your bravery is inspiration and I know I have more waiting for me than you did. Still... so nice to have another one who understands.<br /><br />As always, well written, well done!Ananda girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09578471199205376974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35934196.post-23624928125011816402010-04-08T07:28:22.397-05:002010-04-08T07:28:22.397-05:00Feeling isolated is something I can relate to.. as...Feeling isolated is something I can relate to.. as a kid growing up in a very rural area and the nearest store was 5 miles away..Walking to it would've killed me.. and any friends I went to visit must have felt the same way..
