the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Kawasaki, 2020.03.27

Tonight after a grueling day I attended a "virtual drinks party" with a bunch of colleagues on our shared text/videoconferencing app, which was nice. When asked what I do other than work, I rambled about fishing, parenting, and let slip that I've done some writing. Now I'm on the hook for producing some of my fiction.

rand()m quote

It's difficult in times like these: ideals, dreams and cherished hopes rise within us, only to be crushed by grim reality. It's a wonder I haven't abandoned all my ideals, they seem so absurd and impractical. Yet I cling to them because I still believe, in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart.

—Anne Frank
