Will write for yarn.
I just submitted my blog for your analysis the other day, and realized too late I’ve made a grave mistake.
First of all, that damn little box that asks us “who we are” is ridiculously filled with a few sentences that probably have little to do with who I am. I mean, when someone you’ve never [...]
This is a piece from my “creative” blog. I have no idea why I initially separated the work. Perhaps because that other stuff is darker, less conversational. It could continue to stand alone as a short fiction piece or it might be the beginning of a longer story. We shall see.

I climb the steps to the bridge overlooking the river, out of breath and empty after my run. The water here is a shallow, pebbled flow, fifty feet below a platform that sits on an old railroad support. I know this water, this river, like I know the sound of my name. My heart beats [...]
Dearest Friends,
After pursuing, luring and wooing you to my blog over the last year, I find myself now in a state of flux, of directionless wandering. I premised this site on my own dysfunction, my conjunction junction, my joie de viva Las Vegas, but now I feel I am pulled in too many directions and [...]
Come on, sugar. Let me know.
I have entered a contest to win fabulous prizes and a luxury vacation! Well, it’s fairly luxurious. And it’s in Utah! I’ve never been west of Avon, Ohio, and that was for a business trip to a hazardous waste treatment plant, so you can imagine my excitement about the possibility [...]

But apparently, [...]
Ha! Don’t I wish!
No, folks, I don’t mean my waist line. That would be great, but I’m actually talking about the blog itself.
See, I have a problem. I spend way too much time writing and commenting around WordPress, and not nearly enough time on other things. Like say, sleeping. Writing things that might make money [...]
I’m busy chopping up pieces of paper and trying to assemble something like a coherent story, or a set of notecards, or at least some coasters from it, and in the mean time, I am SUCKING like a suckling pig sucks on an apple, or maybe more like a sucking chest wound.
Between teaching myself HTML [...]
Ok, I admit it. The title has nothing at all to do with this post. In fact, it has little meaning beyond being a play on the title of a song. The reference will be understood by only a few privileged folk, and I hope the version of the song that first comes to mind [...]
