My blog of half-important thoughts and consistent communication practice.
There was never much hope. Just a fool's hope.

~Gandalf

         I'm not going to lie to you I don't have a plan for this blog, but a purpose does seem to be slowly emerging. I'll give my thoughts on this and that: maybe politics, a little religion, and talk about cultural touchstones that are important to me. Overall though I am going to be as personal as I feel comfortable sharing with the internet. This is going to result in some raw ideas coming up that may need to be cooked for longer, but I am not trying to write a perfect tome at the moment.
Okay, listen up. Umm...You're a bunch of dirty misfits. But you're all that's left, so you'll have to do.

         Writing is my passion and working on this blog has become a therapeutic source to me. I owe a lot to everyone who has read this blog; I don't know what interest first brought you here, however, I thank you for the time.
Do or do not. There is no try.

1st Day of NaNo

         This year I find myself starting National Novel Month in a hotel on the prairies looking at mountains and listening to sea shanties. Needless to say that this NaNo has caught me a bit unprepared. My thoughts are currently on finishing a 4th draft of a short children's story for my nephew; I am halfway through finishing that at the moment. I suspect my thoughts won't turn to this month's novel until tomorrow or late this evening.

         In my back pocket I do have an idea for a story that I have been dreading putting on paper because it has to be perfect. And yet the old proverb rings out in my head, "If it is worth doing it is worth doing poorly to begin with." I jokingly blame my girlfriend for this story because I hadn't ever intended to write a straightforward romance until meeting her; I am much more a fantasy and sci-fi writer with a dash of romance on the side admittedly. But I really want to write something that she will love, and thinking of her compels me in this direction. I have also never written with a female main character as the focal point of my stories, so I am just completely out of my element as a writer.

Merry All Saints Day

         I would like to take a moment to remember the saints of the past. Let's all remember the time that Saint Nicolas walked across the room and decked a heretic at the Council of Nicaea. Onward Christian soldiers, for we do not war against men with strength of arms, but with the Gospel of Peace we wage war against spiritual powers and principalities.


Memento Mori,
