Well... this is something new for me. Reading through some blogs (have heard the word, of course, but never bothered to investigate), I perceive this to be akin to a diary, or journal. And for some, apparently, a forum in which to applaud themselves and their various accomplishments-cum-victories. I'm disinclined to revel or complain... to boast or to beg... but I am interested in learning something about the craft of writing, and will be checking in on a more regular basis in future. My own efforts at wordsmithing leave me unsatisfied and feeling like a sham... yet the compulsion (is that the nudge ((THUMP!)) of the muse?)to write will not be denied. So I write. And now you, fellow bloggers, have one more hack to feel better than. Aren't you glad I'm here? Happy 2004. I wish only the best for us all. March: I came back to this thinking I'd delete this blog; it doesn't speak well of me... kind of insinuates all you other guys are self-satisfied whacker-offers. Ain't so. I like being here... like reading what you write, some pretty crappy, some knock-my-socks-off. And I'm learning 'something about the craft of writing'... if ya (I) gots nuttin' to say, saying it floridly don't make it better.
