I remember doing an exercise a few years back when I was first getting into writing. I was working through this book I still have somewhere (if I was writing this at home, I could probably turn around and find it in the bookcase, but the slab leak has us out of the house right … Continue reading

Meandering Monday about Leaving a Mark
We live in an age where people seem focused on trying to achieve their fifteen seconds of fame. For many, it doesn’t matter WHAT the cause of that fame is – FAME – as mercurial as it is – is the objective. It’s human to want to be noticed, but even more human to want … Continue reading
Fractured Fragment Friday: “The Unreliability of the Mature Mind”
