I feel like James T. Kirk . I am going where, well, you know the rest. I have been a writer since I was 3. My daughter, known to y'all as "web-betty.com" has turned into a pretty good wordsmith herself. And for all of you who are REALLY writers, I mean writers for YOURSELF, and not writers for $$ (altho that would be nice), but writers because you have been reading other peoples SHIT AND THINKING", Man I write better than that in my SLEEP!!
There is always the fact that we are far enough away that we can run before they can read it and chase us! I've always loved the "safety factor" of writing. And we all know that the expression of horror/shock/dismay on our friend's faces do change what we say and how we say it. No such worry when we write.
A very good thing when you are rightly wronged and have a good move! (My daughter is exempt from this example) A BAD thing at 3am when you, have reached the end of a really shitty day and a litre of vodka!!
So this is a blog born out of curiousity, interest and fear. It is for me. I want to hear from people like me who just KNOW they can write, but have had things like life, making a living, children and all the other things get in the way of us getting those wonderful words out there!
May your words come often and smooth, and share!

And a PS: Thanx to web-betty for dragging me kicking and screaming into the "land of blog".
