Writing About Lives

Back when I lived in San Diego I developed a routine work-out schedule and pretty well bulked up working with personal trainers. After years of sedentary living – mostly sitting, reading and writing, I foolishly let it go and can I feel the difference. A few friends have had some health crises and a big splashy report came out a few days ago about how dreadful the writing life can be on your health, sort of culminated. I’ve joined New York Sports Club, which I am told has over 90 affiliates in the city. The one I joined in Harlem is spacious, new and very often emptier than you’d expect, so now I have no reason to not go.
