Writing

When I was a kid, I set my sights on being a writer when I was older. Of course, when you are 8 years old, "older" means something different than it does to someone in his early 40's.

Right now, I do not think I am "older" yet. But I am getting closer. :)

I've written a lot over the years, had several things published, but I have yet to set my sights on a serious commitment to writing as my focus has mostly been on being a parent and paying the bills. But my parenthood chapter is nearly at a close, and I am starting to look at the next step.

Maybe I am older now.

I have this love-hate relationship with technology. I love the latest gizmo or new innovation, and yet I hate how technology in general seems to encourage isolation. From shopping guides, how-to articles, or general purpose ranting, you will find it here...

Yes, I am writing a book. No, you will not find that book here! (I want you to go to the bookstore and buy it, so I can continue to devote my days to writing) Here you will find the short stories, aborted ideas, and other scraps that fall away during the creative sculpting process.
