A novel about a guy writing a novel

I read Paul Auster’s Oracle Night. The novel is about a guy writing a novel which on the surface sounds like a dumb idea to write a novel about. But Auster pulls it off masterfully as they say. You can do that when you are Paul Auster.

I am writing a novel about a guy writing a novel, but my novel isn’t any good. I think I have too many sex scenes in it and not enough writing scenes.

Oh, another change. I like this one too.

Next time I feel like a change I think I will just change my blog template instead of trying to paint a bedroom or a kitchen.

On another note, I just got the book I mentioned to you ages ago from the library. The Proust Project, twenty-eight writers commenting on their favorite passage from In Search of Lost Time. What a treat to read.
