If you’re tired of sitting alone in a room at a desk, try standing alone in a room at a slightly higher desk. There are health benefits. And Hemingway did it. Which makes it seem much less silly.
Here is your novel, spread out like a map or a campaign speech. Here are your poems, arranged like blueprints. Pace, stamp your feet, fold your arms, but stay upright. Stand there like it’s the prow of a ship.
