Jim bought me Ursula K. LeGuin’s No Time to Spare, a collection of her blog posts from 2010 until her death in 2018. I had been revisiting Earthsea, and thinking a lot lately about how much I wanted to be writing myself. These blogs showed me a way I might get started.
As it turns out, she was also inspired to start blogging by reading the blogs of another writer, José Saramago. So there’s a chain of inspiration here. A literary lineage, if you will.
Maybe someday I’ll figure out who that guy is.
