Every once in a while, as I have been lately, I get on a writing kick. Don't know where it comes from. All I know is it's there and I have to give in to it. I can understand writers needing to put pen or pencil to paper (or fingers to computer keyboards these days) to share their thoughts or tell a story. I'm no good at thinking up and/or telling stories, but I do like to preserve my mental ramblings from time to time. That need I have to express myself with words--whether anyone reads it or not--is being satisfied by my postings to this blog. Thank you blogspot.com!
I can't compose on the keyboard. I have to write it out in longhand first. I use a lot of notebook paper which I buy on sale at the beginning of each school year. I read, re-read and edit to try to make sure I've used correct grammar and sentence construction. I had some good English teachers more than a half-century ago who helped me learn that. (Thank you Iris Hunsinger at Central Junior High School, especially! Whenever I split an infinitive I think of you!)
Now I'm off to think and write about some other subject. Can't wait to see what it is, can you?
