It is not quite writing about this writing but it is about writing…

Hannah sat down at the white Formica table she’d found at the thrift shop and reached for the green-lined stenographer’s notebook that was a twin to the ones in every other room in her condo. There was something wonderful about a blank sheet of notepaper. The lines were there, just waiting to be filled, and the page could turn into anything from a grocery list to the opening of The Great American Novel. The possibilities were endless.

I like the humble nature of the acquisition of the means of production: a thrift shop table, steno pads. And the note of humour in juxtaposing the practical grocery list and the elusive beast of the Great American Novel.
