Thanks for dropping in!

Welcome to this work in progress … a website in its early stages. Have you ever gotten sidetracked? For a number of years, my focus was writing. Then it wasn’t. I got distracted trying to save the world. I got distracted more than once getting this website going. Time to get back on track.

Writing is nothing if not about discipline and accountability. This site is meant to help with both. Come by often and see if it is working.

Writing and writing about writing.
