car ownership

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2014.09.08

It looks like we might become the last family of four without a car, and finally join the driving set. I did some work with the various car insurance sites on the weekend and discovered that we might actually be able to swing it. I guess a 43 year run without a car is enough. Relying on the TTC is, understandably, making my wife's life difficult.

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
