A Beginning.

Hello all. This is my first ever blog entry and I'm going to fill it with whatever is on my mind at this time. May as well start out realistically.

The reason for this blog is to write, well just about anything. I have found in the recent months that I love writing to the point that every day now I open my journal and start writing something down. Sometimes it's a poem, sometimes it's a short story, and sometimes I even add a little to my first novel. So perhaps that is what I will talk about now.

A few months ago I lost my job and unfortunately for me it was (almost) the best job I could hope for. It was a crushing defeat for me but as I cleared my head of the debris I realized that I could now devote all my time and effort into doing what I really wanted to do. So I traveled to the nearest Target, picked up a writer's journal and a few new pens and headed home to start my stories. I currently have roughly a dozen poems written, a short story almost completed, and I am proud to say am now 125 pages into my first novel. It is an exercise I am surprised has given me such pride and happiness. Even if I put my pen to paper and only write the synopsis for a new story I have in my head it still comes out a win to me and like I said before fills me with a great satisfaction.

Over the next few weeks I'm going to post more blog entries and even post my poems and short stories (because many more will come to me) so if you want to read them I say go ahead and please enjoy. Once again this is my first post so I'm going to leave it a bit vague just giving a bit of insight into me and my writing. My next post will be deeper than this one I assure you.

Thanks to any and all who read this and have a wonderful day.
