Season of Departure

Seems to be a season of departure. Rosie,Jason, Aunt Evelyn, Aunt Corine... And isn't it just like mother nature- moody woman- to have the season's of our lives pass so vehemently different. Change. They pass quickly- out the blue, a shock to the system, lighting. They fall gracefully- a leaf from the limb, to decay, slowly on the forest floor. A subtle ebb to the ocean tide, they recede. Or go swiftly by, in a gush of errant wind. Either way, our season's change. The cycle of life will take us all and all I can say is... I wish for you, my friend, nice weather in passing.

Why the Blog?

Writing is something I've done all my life,however; becoming a 'writer' is new. I've written a novel and am working on another, while searching out agents and learning the game. What I've posted here will vary from memoir to poem to a snippet of fiction... anything that comes to mind that I'd like to share - with you - so, let me know what you think and post a comment!
