OK, Here it is


So here it is, a new blog dedicated solely to the art of writing. It is my attempt to hone my skill, develop my talent, take myself out of my writing. Someone once told me that it took them about 10,000 words to take themselves out of their writing. The average page has between 400 and 500 words. It will be many a post before I am ready to begin truly writing. But for now, I will explore the things that develop good writing habits. Humor and self depreciation are my go to's in writing. I know that I will have to explore other voices in writing to be good. Some of it won't be good. Hopefully some of it will be extraordinary. I am counting on you in this blog. I consider it a dialogue and a preparation for the potential editors that are ruthless in their critique. I want you to be passionate about it. If you hate it, I want to know. If you love it, I want to know more. Let the soul bearing begin...
