after some conversation and a piece of advice (for good or ill), i decided to make this entry...

what's all this about...the blogging, the website, all the reading, watching and writing...to what end is all this time and energy being dedicated...i've known the answer to this question for years, i've dared not speak it for shame, and superstition...

one day, i'd love to walk into a bookstore and see a book on the shelves with my name on it and be proud that it is my work.

there, i said it.

write it down, do the work...
