I would actually like to thank 2 people, here, publicly, on my new blog. One, is Amy Kirk Grayson, a very nice young lady that I used to work with at Springleaf. We were cubicle neighbors for some time and we became instant friends. We each have a passion for writing poetry and blogs. She asked me several months ago if I ever thought about writing a blog, said she thought that was something I really needed to do. Told her I had tried my hand at it before and couldn't access my former blog. She suggested I start a new one, and finally, here it is. She also has a blog, which I will have to find again and subscribe to. Thank you for suggesting this again to me, for backing me (always), and for your friendship!
The other thank you, goes to, Robert Wayne Bee! A classmate of mine from high school, who I must admit I never spoke to once while we were in school together. He is a self published writer, still living in Evansville, has the neatest blog EVER right now, and has encouraged me and my writing for as long as I can remember. I have much fear about writing, as I will be the first to tell you I really know nothing about proper punctuation (guess I slept through Mrs. Spooner's English Class.) But I have so much passion for writing, in fact, when anyone ever asks me what my "dream" job is, I always blurt out writer. Maybe one day. Wayne, as most of his friends call him, has been such an inspiration to me. He has even given me some assignments to kick start my writing process when I get serious about making this happen. Though, I have yet to do them, I am, for the first time in a long time, pondering doing just that.
Wayne, even has a fan club for his writing, called the Wayniacs, and I am a proud member! A HUGE fan. If you ever want to see what I am talking about, let me know and I will send you to his page. It is amazing the talent this young man has, trust me.
So, thank you again for the encouraging words of my fellow writers and more than that, my true friends! Keep on writing and creating!
Thanks for the very kind words! And I'm looking forward to possibly reading a short story on this blog very soon. HINT HINT HINT
