Suppressing the narrative

In the book Writing as a way of Healing, the author talks about a student who tried to stick to a linear form of writing. She kept suppressing stories that she wanted to write about because it wasn't time to get to them. Not all stories get drafted in linear, first to last, order.

That being said, the thing that has been on my mind the most lately has been my experiences in Elmira. I want to go into that in detail. Not right now.

I'm going to spend the morning making large 4 inch pillar candles because that's what I really want to do right now.  But I will need to write about that last job experience tonight or tomorrow. I'm hoping tonight. Hubbie has the day off and it's very hard to write in the same room as him. He keeps laughing at web comics and it distracts me.

Another ritual day is coming up soon. Will post more when I get to that time period.
