What is YOUR best trifecta of writing?
My friend, Prof. Mike Sweeney, posted this on his FB wall April 19, 2011. It is reproduced here with permission:
Watched stunning performance of Neil Young in 1971 BBC show last night. He reportedly wrote Cinnamon Girl, Cowgirl in the Sand, and Down by the River on the SAME DAY. Best trifecta of my writing: book chapter, snide email, grocery list.
What is the best writing trifecta today? Yesterday? Ever?
Me, today: Congratulatory note to former student, note allowing 14-year-old to read "Kite Runner" in honors English and this. I think I have some work to do.
A Dear John letter on the back of a to-do list tucked into my personal manifesto. Okay, so not really. But that would be a great trifecta.
