Emily Devenport
I don't think inspiration is what drives me to write. For me it's a compulsion. There have been times in my life when it almost qualified as OCD. That doesn't mean I can write all the time, though. There have been periods when all I did was doodle around on my blog. So if this is really a question about how to get going, I think the best way is to do the things you really enjoy, then write (nonfiction) about them on a blog. Some people like to write in journals, but journals always seem too private to me. If you want to write, do it publicly.

Emily, Walt Keyes here (blast from the past, right?). I am digitizing my slides and have a number of good ones of Kathryn that she or you might like. I can't figure out how to get ahold of her, and you are pretty well shielded behind a curtain (I don't Tweet or have Facebook). Any chance you or brother Dave email with her or otherwise have a way to send her these photos (not explicit)? No rush. stjohnspock@yahoo.com
