Imagine a place….put yourself there….let your imagination take over….relate your experience to yourself, someone else or no one at all.

It Was A Dark And Stormy Night...

It Was A Dark And Stormy Night…

 

One obstacle to writing is the same obstacle that I have come up against many times in life: fear of failure.  Writing is an act of creation and as such the very commission of the act is success.  Others who see my work will judge it based on their own biases which I have no control over.  Nor can opinions destroy my work, once realized it exists as an object in it’s own right.  I resist the urge to edit and re-edit my work over and over again in the pursuit of perfection and generally only revisit it to correct factual or blatant grammatical errors.

This blog is part of my attempt to dare to live the life I have dreamed for myself.  I have imagined a place and  now put myself there.  My imagination is working and so you read these words.
