I love to write and I hate to write, but I try to write daily regardless. My reason for starting this blog is purely selfish. Writing is a part of my job and typically I work with deadlines within that environment. I believe deadlines keep me focused and on-task and even with small windows of time I somehow manage to complete assignments.Unfortunately my creative writing only has self imposed deadlines which seem to be easily ignored or set-aside for more conducive times, better locations or being in the mood. I know these are weak excuses which prevent me from telling the stories which want to be told. So now I have a blog, and a commitment to contribute to it on a weekly basis. No organization, no searching for an audience, just words, thoughts and impressions written down and submitted out into the world.
