What is the aim or goal of your writing: 2nd ed. says, "Mrs. Arnow writes novels longhand sitting in the breezeway where she cannot hear the telephone." Refering to a summer job in a small resort near Petosky, "I found myself in a delightful world of blue water, blue skies, white birches, stump fences, swamps, and with leisure to enjoy it all."
