Dusting Travel Blog Off...

At the request of some friends, I am dusting off the old "Mighty Missy's Mighty Adventure" Blog so that people can follow along as I head to my summer residency for a MFA program (Spalding University) in Prague and Berlin this month.  (Too bad I forgot about it when I went to China a few years ago.)

I'll be headed there a few days early and staying a couple of days later.  Hopefully it will allow me time to relax and enjoy the trip while dealing with jet lag.  (I can't sleep on flights.  I feel like I need to stay awake to help the pilot...which I am sure the pilot appreciates.)  ;)

Random cool thing that I stumbled across that I'll be adding to my YA book in progress:

Paternosters!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paternoster 

It's a continuous elevator with no doors that doesn't stop.  Eeek! Apparently one of the few remaining paternosters in the world is in Prague. No, I do not intend to ride on it.  Just thinking about it makes me more stressed out than flying does. But I think my characters will be brave enough to use one.  

Insights I glean about writing and my adventures in writing will be in a separate blog: http://wannabewriterblog.blogspot.com
