As you may have noticed, there was no Being a Better Writer post today. That is because as consequence of my troubles last week, this week I am heading to Alaska to take a job on a commercial fishing boat for a few weeks (shrimp season, for those curious), during which time I will be off the grid. I’m going to set up some “From the Archives” posts so that the blog doesn’t stay silent, but it will be quieter than normal once the season starts proper until I’m done.

See you again soon!
