First category I added when I started this blog many moons ago. I jot stuff here I can't otherwise categorize.
The section you will see a swear or two in. Not that I am a big fan, but sometimes situation can't be helped
Here you will find books that I have read, reading or intend to read. More Recent Reads => CLICK HERE.
I intend to use this area to catalog my writing journey and collect tidbits of information on the authoring process.
These are areas I am very much interested in. From time to time, as I am so moved, I free think here as well
Coming Back to Center
Didn’t write anything yesterday, just used the entire past day and a half to clear my head. I was so torqued the other day when I got in, I just want to fly away….to a peaceful place. Well, that the reason for this blog right.
I really have to push myself to use my words a bit more. This will soon come to pass, but when you are in the thick of it..it is really not fun. Then again – walking thru the valley of the shadows never is fun for anyone.
I am considering changing from b2 over to Wordpress. In fact I am pretty sure I am going to do it. It is just a matter of getting the theme to my liking.
I am really starting to like the simplicity of this mode of communication. After dealing with the complexities of Nuke and PostNuke for all these years, I think most folks are coming back to a simplier time. I think this is it. I for one am impressed thus far. Just a bit torn if I want to open it up to anyone tho. But what’s the use….if you just keep it to your self anyway.
