Fine. I've often used that one word answer as a way to keep people from asking other questions. Not that I'm particularly private -- although I guess most people think I am -- but because sometimes it's easier to carry your burdens than talk about them.
"How are you doing?"
"Fine."
"How are your finances?"
"Fine."
"How's your health?"
"Fine."
"How's your love life?"
"Fine."
"How's your family?"
"Fine.
"How's the writing?"
"Fine."
"How's the diet?"
"Fine."
Fine, fine, fine. I hear myself saying it until I hate the word. But I don't know how to approach life any differently. It's not that I don't think people aren't sincere when they ask. Most of them are. It is ... unseemly to share such things in public. I guess.
And let's be very honest about this. My life isn't that interesting. Writing all the time doesn't give me much time for adventures these days.
Anyway, I'm fine. How are you?
