Write Something Today (A first post)

Maybe you’re a little like me; you’ve been curious about blogging – maybe even thought you might try your hand at it one day. Maybe you fancy yourself a writer or an author or a storyteller or a journalist or a novelist or a bard. Maybe you’re a bit more like me; you’re too busy with work, school, kids, sports, clubs, church, chores, vacations and life in general – but you’re really just lazy, undisciplined and not all that sure what you have to say. Maybe, just maybe, you really are a lot like me and you’re tired of wondering.

One single thread of advice is repeated over and over in everything I have ever read or heard about writing – “just write!” Get started! Write something today, and tomorrow, and again and again. Today, that is what I am doing.~

The laurels of authorship are worth the winning largely because there is no primrose path leading to them.
