Having Hard Water Problems?

Check out my article at Got2BeGreen.com to find a helpful trick.

It revolutionized my drinking glasses' lives.

You Ask, I Deliver

A few weeks ago I wrote about my writer's block on coming up with an interesting article to write for Got2BGreen.com, which, (as I have gleefully repeated here ad nauseam), was named one of TIME's Best Blogs of 2009.

Anyway, you told me in the comments to write about traveling green(er) during the holiday season.

And I did. I DID!

Ask and ye shall get it eventually.

So, in case your enthusiasm hasn't wavered, you may read my article here.

And thank you very much for letting me steal your brilliant ideas.

The Blank Page

I love to write. Some people express themselves through painting, or cooking, or music or photography. My preferred medium is words. It doesn't mean that my words always sound good, but just that I like arranging them. From the time I was young I was fascinated with language - the living, breathing nature of it, the barely restrained possibility in endless combinations of letters and spaces and sounds. String them together in just the right way and a sentence unfolds perfectly, like a morning glory on a dewy June dawn. Miss a few, and the beauty is somehow slightly off kilter, the secret ingredients missing, even if only the author every really senses it.

Sometimes this ingrained desire to write feels like a blessing - usually when the words come easily, and I get lost in the beauty of the rhythms of sound and thought and language. And sometimes, it feels like a cross to bear. These are usually the days when I have something I want to write, need to write, and all I end up doing is staring listlessly at a blank page, wondering where and how to start.

On these days, I just wish I were a really good cook.

Anyway, I need to come up with another article for Got2BGreen.com - an article about green living. And I can't think of anything at all.

So - I need you! Thoughts? Suggestions? Please? What green topic would YOU like to read about?
