There were a couple things I wanted to mention before 2006 ended but I got busy. First, a list of the two best things I read about writing and/or creativity last year:

#2: “The Midnight Disease: The Drive to Write, Writer’s Block and the Creative Brain” by Alice W. Flaherty
Dr. Flaherty knows a few things about the brain, and about depression (from the customer’s point of view) and she can write. What more do you want?

and, finally, the best thing I read about writing in 2006:
Detachment, from Horst’s ongoing Poetry Workshop. I recommend this post to anyone who writes.

Happy New Year, everyone.
