But the end is in sight and soon I plan to split my time between bon-bon consumption on the couch and making frequent blog entries. I imagine this will take place in the three days between finishing the third Alice book and starting the new book that has been haunting the edges of my subconscious for several months now.

For a wonderful summation of the role of the blog in a writer’s life see the always eloquent and thought-provoking William Gibson’s farewell to blogging:
