I Wanna Be A Writer!

Here is where I begin another journey.

I've written and have been published quite a bit in the past, but I've never considered myself a writer. I've been plodding along running on mostly instinct rather than writer-ly concepts like structure and form. So here's where I intend to begin and undertake my journey--a different one-- to learn not just how to write, but how to be a writer. The kind that makes up stories and writes them with enough beauty and energy and chutzpah that others will be compelled to say, "yup, he's a writer, and a good one at that."

While the above constitutes my core purpose for setting up this blog, I'm going to spice it up by writing down some of the minute and inconsequential details of my life, and even thoughts to be classified under non sequitur. And I will strive to write in an eloquent fashion. But if I fail at eloquence, I will at least make my posts readable.

Wish me luck.
