The Streets of Wilsonia, Learned

After months and months of puzzlement, I’ve decided to consult the map and make a list. Brilliant idea, don’t you think? I’ve intended to do this all along, but now that there are only 20 drawings left to do, it seems like I can take a small break from my pencils and do something different.

But here’s the conundrum: when I am finished with my drawings, I’ll probably wish I was drawing instead of consulting the map, the thesaurus, emailing, working on the written parts, rescanning drawings and spending hours trying to figure out how to make Adobe InDesign behave.

  1. Alta Lane
  2. Brewer Lane
  3. Cedar Lane
  4. Chinquapin Lane
  5. Fern Lane
  6. Fir Lane
  7. Goddard Lane
  8. Grant Lane
  9. Hazel Lane (Anyone met her yet??)
  10. Hillcrest Road
  11. Kaweah Lane
  12. Laurel Lane (Is this Hazel’s sister or her aunt?)
  13. Le Conte Way
  14. Lilac Lane (Must be Laurel’s sister)
  15. Lily Lane (Oh! There are three sisters??)
  16. Lupine ??
  17. Manzanita Lane
  18. Mason Road
  19. Meadow Lane
  20. Palisade Way
  21. Park Road
  22. Pine Lane
  23. President’s Lane (Just one president – his name was Woodrow Wilson, and don’t tell Glenn Beck about this, ‘kay?)
  24. Sierra Lane (a younger niece, because everyone knows that “Sierra” is the new “Ashley”)
  25. Tehipite Way
  26. Tyndall Lane (Finally! a guy in the Lane family!)
  27. Whitney Lane (another modern Lane cousin)
  28. Willow Lane (whose mom was a hippie – was going to name her “Sunshine” or Rainbow” but got sober and switched to “Willow”.)

    Jana, This is a great site/project. My blog started as a story in progress. I never would had written my first book otherwise. I love what you’re doing here.

      Dan, thanks for stopping by and commenting! It is an overwhelming project, but a very satisfying one. Seemed important to document the progress and allow the cabin community to follow the building of the book.

      Now I want to go to your site and find your earliest entries to see how yours began.
