Begin at the beginning.
"One of the few things I know about writing is this: spend it all, shoot it, play it, lose it, all, right away, every time. Do not hoard what seems good for a later place in the book, or for another book; give it, give it all, give it now. The impulse to save something good for a better place later is the signal to spend it now. Something more will arise for later, something better. These things fill from behind, from beneath, like well water. Similarly, the impulse to keep to yourself what you have learned is not only shameful, it is destructive. Anything you do not give freely and abundantly becomes lost to you. You open your safe and find ashes."
--Annie Dillard
Well, I've been keeping it to myself for far too long. It's high time I started spending some words.
Thus, I'm re-enacting my web presence, and belatedly entering the world of blogging.
This will be probably turn out to be a pretty eclectic undertaking, a hodge-podge of poetry, photos, musical snippets, provisional opinions and incomplete sentences.
I'll try to make it interesting.
"I think most people are more important than their opinions." -Jorge Luis Borges
