The First Time

So here I go. I have been thinking about doing this for over a year now. Creating a blog and writing with a purpose. So...now what. Thinking about doing it and doing it are two different things. Do I even have anything to say? Well, yes...I guess.

I have fancied myself an aspiring writer for some time...starting 3 stories that have yet to be finished and one short story, the manuscript of which is now lost. But I find that a lot of people fancy themselves to be something they aren't...just turn on American Idol. I guess the lesson to be learned is that you are what you think you are and if you think you're good enough, you will put it all on the line and let someone else judge you.

I often wonder "Will anyone ever remember anything I say?" and "Do I ever say anything that's important enough for anyone to remember?" Maybe. Maybe not. But I'm going to put it on the line and let you, whoever you are, judge. Then I will choose to accept or reject your judgement.

So here I go.

I'm so glad you did this!! I have so much I would like to leave comments on, but I'll limit myself to this one for tonight.

I definately remember things you have said. Actually I just emailed you for your ideas about something. BOOGITTY! Yes I just typed that, hovering over the backspace button.

Moving on, I just quoted you today!

Once again you have inspired me! Kudos.
