Beginnings

Everything has a beginning... right? Tonight I begin throwing my thoughts out to the world. Why? Heck, I ask myself that one. The only answer I can come up with is taking another step at trying to further my dream. Since I was a child (suffice it to say I am now an adult and have been for some time) I have been writing stories for myself. Usually it's just a scene or two... occasionally multiple chapters. For me it started as cathartic... a way to create friends I was too shy to go find in real life. Then it was because I ran out of interesting things to read. Now here I am with a book collection numbering in the hundreds and notebooks full of ideas numbering in the dozens. After several stuttering steps, I'm putting those ideas out for the world's acceptance or rejection.

Have I said yet that I don't like rejection? Might have something to do with why it has taken me so long.

So I am beginning here. I will be documenting my journey from random writer to published author (with any luck). My hope is that you'll enjoy the story snippets and character sketches I'll be posting out here. I would love to have some feedback... perhaps some inspiration... and to know others might want to read what I write.

Keep reading and if you see the webyeti, toss him a protein bar. He rarely attacks if fed.
