Once upon a time....

This blog was actually started for me by my lovely wife (actually the one typing this right now, pretending to be Bart) and our wily dog-beast (lending his support at the moment by not snoring too loudly).  I have always been a writer at heart, but I haven't taken the time to actually write in a long, long time.  Why?  Two reasons, really: 1) life gets in the way and 2) writer's inertia.  This blog represents a commitment to writing regularly, even if just a little bit each time, to get myself back in the habit.

Shannon (the wife) set up this blog without my knowledge as a birthday present.  It was an act of both coercion and love.  Love more than coercion.  I think.  I've owed her a story for a year and a half, and she's getting impatient.

On that note, let me begin.  When I actually know that this exists.  Which won't be for another 12 days.  In the meantime, Shannon is posting one of my old poems that she has access to.

Cheers!

  2. Z has a notebook that he bought for me on our 2nd anniversary. He is supposed to write me a message in it at every holiday/important day. Yep, right. I hope you stick to it B. ~A
