My love and appreciation for reading and writing came late in life, somewhere after my divorce and shortly before my big thirtieth birthday. Interacting with my friends and family, watching Netflix, Hulu, and the occasional online poker/blackjack game fit into the equation as well.
I dream frequently.
I create mostly inside my mind then write sporadically. I feel that I should be continuously writing; honestly, right now as I hone my skills and sharpen my teeth on the bones of others, it’s just so easy for my eyes and mind to lose themselves in the work of others.
I believe myself to be an open-minded person.
I draw on anything that my conscious mind remembers. Finally, I like to live by these few simple wordsβ¦
βMistakes show us what needs improving. Without mistakes, how would we know what we had to work on?β
And this tooβ¦
βDreaming permits each and every one of us to be quietly and safely insane every night of our live.β
Writer on, writers.
Paint on, painters.
Artists createβ¦
Believe in your creations.
I am after falling into some godless hole, grappling vines, kicking with my frantic feet against some nonexistent force.
This is it so far, now tell me about yourself. Will I learn more about you through your writings?

Hi, you’ll probably receive a ping from me because I have invited you to participate in a three-day quote challenge. Just an invite to take up if and when it strikes your fancy. π

Ah yes Janice, I was just about to ping you on the invite. Thank You for the offer, but I must decline. Again, I thank you for the invite but must say no’ this time. I found that my previous involvement wasn’t so good. So I decline now and perhaps in the future try again, but just not this time around.

Quietly and safely insane is a good thing, for a time….if you keep at it—which I think you should—another time will come, when you dare not to be safe and you will not be quiet. All my good wishes….
