There’s always that first step in skating, from dry ground to slick ice, when it just seems impossible. Impossible that two thin blades of metal will support you, impossible that because its molecules have begun to dance a little slower water will hold you up.

She's so tough to photograph. When I get my camera out, she hides in her "cave" which is actually the downstairs bathroom. So, when I am able to sneak in a shot and get a good one, I feel like I've accomplished something special. A bit of snow on her face. #blackdogs #rescuedogs

#BOTD in 1933: Charles Portis. Here's the final paragraph from an early draft of TRUE GRIT. (His papers are in the Wittliff Collections at Texas State U.) He's still working out the final lines but what strikes me is how much of this draft resembles the final book. A master from the start.

Some solid truth here in #sundaysentence for this week, from the fun and creepy new one by @jonathanjanz.bsky.social: "No virtue breeds as much trouble as honesty." (& HNY to all my fellow compulsive readers & sentence obsessives, & thanks for all the amazing writing and recommendations you shared!)
