I like to write
So write
But …
I don’t know the words to use.
How can you write without words?
Will you help me?
No. I can’t. I won’t.
Why not?
They’re your words, or should be.
But …
So write, even if it’s mush.
Why?
Because it will be your mush and no one else’s.
Okay. Should I go to school?
No, don’t go to school.
Why not?
Go take a walk in the woods. Write what you see. Write what you feel. That is enough.
Okay.

An author, a teacher, a candlestick maker? I am lucky enough to have followed my muse through a most eclectic life of many careers, many interests, and many friends and liasions. Two beautiful children, now grown and one their own, several books -- the penultimate accomplishment dream come true, a hores trainer, a college professor, and a stint in corporate America to validate my feelings that I never, ever want to go there again. So I donned my ruby slippers and dared to take those different paths, those diverging paths, and that has made all the difference! (Thank you, Robert!)
