If the old saying about never having a second chance at a first impression is true, then I’m long, long, long past saving. I prefer instead to focus on my own saying: There may be a first time for everything, but it’s what you do afterward that counts. This blog is, to me, a significant part of that ‘afterward’. 

My desire for this blog is to discuss my writing in every aspect, from concept to publication, word choices, editing, concerns, etc.  For now, the need to conquer the fear of blank spaces is more important than the need to be funny or profound or witty. Just get it on paper, dummy; there’s always room for editing later.

Finally, I would be seriously remiss if I didn’t take a moment to wish my wonderful wife a Happy Anniversary. Fourteen years and she hasn’t gotten tied of me yet. Thank God. Love you Kimberly!
