Why I Write and What I Write About
_As a parent,
grandparent, teacher, guidance counselor and room parent for 9
consecutive years I have often seen troubled children. Likewise I have
seen far more well adjusted,
happy,
delightful
children. My hope is that my words might move some children from the
troubled category to the well adjusted category.
Sometimes I write merely to keep my head from exploding with ideas. I’ve always had a need for self expression which runs the gamut through performance, many types of media expression and word. I greet and end each day with the hope that I might make some small change that will improve life for someone. Some of what I write is to entertain, hopefully with some redeeming aspect being illustrated. My naivete and cynicism clash with great frequency. Twenty-five years of working with technology challenged my intellect but did little for my soul. I write to nourish that part of me that needs to feel like I am positively impacting life. I need to feel that I am trying to make a difference.
