I am past the halfway point of this book, sneaking short reads at work on an e-reader device. I actually love Elizabeth Gilbert's writing style. Perhaps because I hear a lot of my own thoughts in her writing voice. She is very skilled at taking a thought that is normally written in two sentences and spreading it out over two pages. This is something I am striving for, but blogging formats aren't the best place for such a practice.
Peut-etre when I write my spoof of Eat Pray Love (which shall be called Sleep, Pray, Take Some Pills) I can streeeetttttch out my split second thoughts into two dozen paragraphs.
Je cherche un editor.
And an actress to portray me in the film adaptation.
Seriously, when Liz heads to the ashram in India and achieves an essence of divinity, I was thinking, "Holy Guacamole, that's what schizophrenia is like too!"
I was always told Mary Stuart Masterson should portray me in a film. She plays, you know, quirky characters.
