Greetings,
I just found your blog via entrecard. What caught my attention was the Title..Never the same river twice…you don’t see that reference to Heraclitus very often. Funny thing is my girl just used that same reference in her most recent editorial about a hike we took last week on a familiar creek trail. Nice blog…

Hi Maria,

I’m a new reader/listener to your blog. The first thing that I thought when I listened to this post was how the collective unconscious or the hundred monkeys thing really is in place. It was August 21st I visited my library with this exact same intention. Shift a little back to fiction for puely reading pleasure.

It was not then the post that prompted me but something else entirely.

The effect of reading? I think the most prominent aspect for me was a recognition of what fiction has not only represented in my life, but what it assists and doesn’t. How it mirrors the ‘good and bad’ for me personally. Maybe too indulgent, compulsive, escapism, a sense of being lost to the unreal on the ‘bad’ side. Freedom, peaceful, childlike remembrances and attitudes on the ‘good’. An entire host of things really.

Thanks for posting what seems to have been ‘in play’.
