David Foster Wallace

Managed to eke out another twelve pages on the new full-length for the grown-up types. Yes, am sitting here thinking I am the hero of my own writing room. Wiped me out so much had to take a nap. Feel refreshed and brilliant now, as only someone who has written 24 pages in one day can. The day hit a crashing halt though just a few moments ago with the news that David Foster Wallace took his own life on Friday. This is devastating news and while I don't know any of the details, I think every writer on the planet today is thankful for what he left behind, are also very, very sad about what we will never have.
