You and Me, Ten Years Later

I used to write all the time… If it was just to rant or to post something creative I was working on, I’m pretty sure I had some version of a blog since 2000 and I loved it. Over the last year I’ve let writing fall by the wayside and the pieces I have managed to jot down have been kept private or were for classes I was taking. I’ve been through some serious life changes in the past six months and when the new year turned, I decided to make some promises to myself that I am determined to keep.

It isn’t about resolutions, or single goals to grab out of the air but rather themes to approach and immerse myself in. For credit’s sake, I’m borrowing the idea… but it’s a good one and I think it will work for me. My theme for 2012 is transformation. The beauty behind such a vast theme is that I can make it mean anything. Transforming myself (back) into the writer I once was, but still progressing, always getting better is part of that.

So here I am. This isn’t meant to be a place for only professional pieces, creative writing… but more for any kind of writing that comes about. A place to flex my figurative authorial muscles and remind myself of how much I simply loved writing as an action.

Further, I wanted a place to just put my thoughts. With transformation comes the bursting of ideas, especially those connected to art, music, and whatever else. So here I am, back again. Let’s see how it goes.
