False Starts

I've attempted to put together a solid post more than a few times in the last month but I'm having trouble giving shape to my ideas (nothing new). For now I'll just tease you with the titles of some of the posts I've started and, in the tradition of Welles, not finished. If there is an overwhelming demand to finish one of these posts (and by that I mean that if one of my two readers really wants to read one of them in particular) I'll make an extra effort to finish that one soon.

Un abrazo para mis queridas lectores (that means you Shaunie and Mom),

-Beyond the Anthology: Why You Should Consider Reading Neruda's Obra Completa

-Struggling to Speak, or, The Virtual Death of José Arcadio Buendía (I'm most excited about this one)

-Another Year Another Passing

little disappointed i didn't get a shout out in the list of readers...that's all. so continuing the well's tradition, do you want me to go back and do a criterion version of those posts?

I vote for the post on Neruda.

I actually would like to see what Buendía has to (or doesn't have to) say.

Your posts will never live up to their titles.
You need to read 'Bartelby & Compania'
Oh and I tried but I couldn't find 'Mantra' (I confess that I didn't try hard enough, sorry)
