It is necessary to write, if the days are not to slip emptily by. How else, indeed, to clap the net over the butterfly of the moment? For the moment passes, it is forgotten; the mood is gone; life itself is gone. That is where the writer scores over his fellows: he catches the changes of his mind on the hop. ~Vita Sackville-West
Writing is a socially acceptable form of schizophrenia. ~E.L. Doctorow
Substitute "damn" every time you're inclined to write "very;" your editor will delete it and the writing will be just as it should be. ~Mark Twain

Quick Note to You

I decided that it's finally time to really start a blog. I've had a lot of inspiration from my friends lately, and I'm feeling a need to write and release! :) To get everyone caught up...I'm 32 years old, and my husband, Emerson, is 28. We have 4 beautiful kids..Jasmyn turns 13 tomorrow, Justus is 8, Kayleigh is 6, and Hayden is 5...and starting Kindergarten this year. This means that I will have a teenager...eek...and quiet days at home, which I am not used to. I'm hoping that this will help spur my creative side into action. I used to love writing short stories and poems, and firmly believe that writing is one of the best ways to connect with not only others, but yourself. Sadly, I've lost some of that connection with myself, and I'm looking forward to finding myself and reuniting with old friends and new. I hope you all enjoy my ramblings and look forward to hearing from you! :)
