So Many Books . . . So Little Time

I love a good book. Even better, I love writing a good book. Like many writers - published and unpublished - I started writing as a child. My creative urges took off in junior high. It's only been in the last few years that I really started to believe my dreams of being a writer could be a reality.

In her book The Artists Way, Julia Cameron talks about "shadow artists" - people that are really artists but don't believe in themselves as such. They take jobs in fields that let them hover on the edges of their artistic interests without having to acknowledge their inner artist. I used to be one of those shadow artists.

At any rate, my goal here is to share both my own work and that of others that grabs my attention.
