happiness is a new bike

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2012.07.12

What a difference it makes to ride a new bike; good-bye stiffness in the neck, hello new sore spots in the legs.

It's a blast. It's particularly good to be back on 700c wheels, and the lighter frame is a big help.

Remove everything that has no relevance to the story. If you say in the first chapter that there is a rifle hanging on the wall, in the second or third chapter it absolutely must go off. If it's not going to be fired, it shouldn't be hanging there.

—Anton Chekhov
