I write. I write to make sense of my world. I write because it helps me understand other people. I write for my own pleasure. I hope that what I write will touch other people. As a reader, I sometimes have to momentarily put down a book because of the emotions it’s stirred up in me. I want to give that experience to others.
I’m working on a novel. Despite the distractions of everyday life, several times a week I put words onto a page, doubting almost every word and occasionally feeling some pride in a sentence or two. In between working on my novel, I write little doodles. Short stories, flash fiction, stuff that I call “lyrical” (I can’t claim it’s poetry!), and thoughts. I share them here and I will always welcome your thoughts and comments.
