I think the first thing to establish is why I’m doing this.
For over 25 years, I’ve dabbled in writing. I loved writing throughout school. I loved writing out of school. For nearly a decade, my favorite pastime was playing in a game with some friends, where the whole point is to take turns, writing paragraphs to create interactive scenes. In 2006, I went back to college to focus on writing. It’s always been an important part of my life, and my talent and voice is something I take pride in.
Now that Westercon 66 has come and gone, I’ve decided to step it up a notch. I’m going to write a little every day. If I’m not working on my story, then I’ll write something here. Some day, I want interested editors or publishers or readers to be able to look me up at this site, and be able to learn a little bit more about me and my writing.
This is a start. This is the first stroke of the pen across the page. Hopefully, the ink will continue to flow, and the imagination will continue to fire, and all the things that have been lodged in my heart and my mind will be freed for the world to see.
A blog seems like a good start.
I am behind you a thousand percent. I can’t wait to see where this will take you. Once you open your wings you will soar- I will proudly watch you fly.
