Doris Lessing may have edged me out for the Nobel Prize for Literature (a real squeaker of a contest there, you may be sure), but I have the honor of being one of the winners in the "Where Do You Get Your Ideas?" contest at Finding Wonderland, which I entered under my stage name of liquidambar.   Alas, I am not the Grand Prize winner, but I still get to see a. fortis immortalize my smart-alecky answer in a cartoon. Which brings up an idea for my own blog here: what it's like for writers to have their work illustrated. Tune in soon for that post, which I am not going to write tonight, since I have spent most of the day sitting in/on airports, planes, train stations, trains, and automobiles, including some really memorable moments (which felt like hours) flying in circles over Pennsylvania.
