I decided about twenty-five years ago that I wanted to be a writer. Three years later I went to rehab, and started writing the twelve steps. In 1992 I returned to school. No great surprise, I got addicted to school and stayed for three degrees and thirteen years. Oh well, an accidental PhD perhaps, but I did learn how to write. From my head. My new blog (my second) is my attempt to write from my heart. Trying to figure out if I am a writer yet, as well as discover the meaning of life. Some days I am optimistic on both accounts.
