Many oaks front man made bodies of water or are surrounded by turf requiring irrigation during our hot summers.
They're dying . . .

Aslant a tarn there dies an oak.
Ne'er was meant to edge a pool
Nor shade a verdure plush, but,
Rather born to live and thrive in
Arid climes that, since, are gone
For good while winter's moisture
Reigns this entire year through.[Edited to format]

"Writing . . . is a lonely life."
by compound complex in"writing, at its best, is a lonely life.
organizations for writers palliate the writer's loneliness but i doubt if they improve his writing.
he grows in public stature as he sheds his loneliness and often his work deteriorates.

Your thoughts are appreciated, Nancy, jgnat and new hope.
I agree with what you have written, jgnat, some of which is borne out in Carlos Baker's biography of Ernest Hemingway. Personally, writing is not a lonely world because I live in a neighborhood of many published writers and we confer constantly. Not to mention, of course, the wonderful support and feedback of our friends here on JWN! You put it so well, Nancy, and thank you, new hope, for your reference to Anne Frank.
No longer must we writers lock ourselves away, though times of solitude and reflection are necessary.
CHEERS!

- Greetings, BOTR: Thank you for posting.
- The book listed below was our "Bible" in the Bethel proofreading department. It was published in 1957, but the information remains viable and it's a hoot to read. I, like you, also use "Strunk and White." Doing research on various authors and their respective styles, I have learned a great deal more detail on style, syntax, grammatical terminology and usage, etc. from the links provided online. There's a world of up-to-the-minute information at our fingertips! CC

"Writing, at its best, is a lonely life. Organizations for writers palliate the writer's loneliness but I doubt if they improve his writing. He grows in public stature as he sheds his loneliness and often his work deteriorates. For he does his work alone and if he is a good enough writer he must face eternity, or the lack of it, each day."
Ernest Hemingway, from a speech written by him but delivered by another in acceptance of the Nobel Prize in Literature, 1954.

No mention of Satan in 5 church attendances!!!
by quellycatface infollowing on from jgnat's post, if that's okay.why do i not hear of satan in normal churches?

Hi Quelly:
Good morning!
Yes, the constant mention of Satan at meetings and in conversation became too much. Strange, how irrational fear has left the building and constant blame-throwing (on Satan) has ceased. I'm OK with the concept of time and unforeseen occurrence and that we humans make our own messes.
Life in the real world is actually rather peaceful compared to how we once thought and lived!
Best.
