The Occasional Joy of Reading
http://forksplit.blogspot.com/2005/06/blowmax.html
I remember reading something (it was either "Nickel and Dimed" or a piece in Harper's) where the author was saying how, as a writer and reader working in a non-writing/reading job for the story, she was desperate for something to read... so much so that she just kept reading menus and can labels over and over again. I can definitely see that. I am reminded of that everytime I work for an entire day on the production end of (not creative in the least) writing, and then I come upon something that just enthralls me. This story was one of those moments. Oh, and Subscribed!

Forksplit is one of the most entertaining reads on the net. I've been subscribed now for quite a while. She's witty, a great writer, self deprecating, and stunning caustic. I blogged about her a while back. I stop what I'm doing whenever a new post comes up
