Hello, world ;-)

Blog #1

Here it is: the website (that was a rock fight to build) exposing all my creative bits to the world. Let me tell you, it’s been a thing to get here. 

There have been stops and starts—often with years in between. There’s been birth and divorce and death. There’s been a shit ton of doubt. And chocolate cake eaten while prone on the couch. But I’m here now.

Where’s here? Me in my right-sized skin, claiming my creativity and sending it out to be received however it is received. I’m not looking for validation, I’m seeking to do the one thing my soul has begged for: share my creativity with the world. 

What will become of it? Who knows. Does it matter? Not a whole bunch (oh, come on, we all know I want to make a splash). But the point is I’m doing it! 

And to anyone who feels the pull but has felt not creative enough, too tired, like you don’t have anything to say, that everything has already been said, yada yada yada…FUCK THAT!

Giving voice to what’s inside you is its own reward. And its own little engine. Give it two minutes a day, while lying flat on your back. Use your crowbar of desire to pry open the well of you. See where it takes you. Be afraid and sad and tired. Do it anyway. Let me know what you find.

Here’s a bonus poem that I wrote before that crowbar cracked open my creative well. I Am a Radio Station
