Postcards from Lynn
I wonder what it would be like to make blog entries no longer than could be typed onto a 4” x 6” postcard. Would I say less or would it force me to say more with fewer words?
Maybe, my blog should be postcards from Lynn—something you could read quickly then put away with little fuss or bother.
I might even attach a photo taken with my new camera.
This it; I’m out of room.

Lynn - your post are already postcards.
Let me give you a quote from Deleuze's Pourparlers 1972-1990 which is a great collection of interviews with him.
I am not an intellectual, because I have no Bildung available, no reserves. What I know, I only know in relation to what I’m doing now, and if I return to it after the interval of some years I have to start all over again. It is quite comfortable not to have an opinion or attitude about this or that. We do not suffer from lack of communication, rather we suffer under the forces that compel us to express ourselves when we really don’t have much to say.
(From interview in Magazine Littéraire, no. 257, September 1988, in Pourparlers 1972-1990)
Your reaction?

Orla,
Thank you so much for the citation. I love it. It fits well with the way I have been feeling lately.
