Comment on Oprah visits Maharishiville (aka Fairfield, Iowa) by Julie Long

Marilyn, I know what you mean. When was the last time you were in Fairfield? The last time I visited was 10 years ago to research the novel. It was the first time I’d been back as an adult, and it was interesting to view the town through grown-up eyes. In my memory, the house I grew up in, the field we played in, the walk to school — everything seemed bigger when I was a kid!

It’s just weird knowing that Fairfield is the town I was born in and raised in along with my 7 siblings . Seeing the show will bring back such different emotions.

No but I sent her a letter with 1-page synopsis and a copy of the local newspaper coverage her visit (which was priceless – see my other post). It just felt too obtrusive to send the entire 3-inch thick manuscript! Maybe someday I can send her a copy of the printed book

We love you for your mid-western sensitivity. Never fear – if you can’t toot your own horn, you have a whole gaggle of friends who will toot it for you!

That article is so interesting! I’ve never been a good napper. But I’ve read that if you’re really tired, the thing to do is to drink a cup of caffeine and then nap for 20 minutes while the caffeine takes affect. When I need to revive myself, I do this yoga pose, Legs Up the Wall for 10-20 minutes. It really works!
