Dear reader,
I’ll be using this space as an occasional daybook. I will post about the events of a day here; I intend these accounts to be more than a listing of the incidents of my day. And I anticipate I won’t be posting these entries daily or even on the day the events I write of occur. I like to think that I’m a ruminative writer, but it’s probably closer to the truth to say I’m a slow writer. I often feel as if I’m trying to catch up. Because I conceived of this blog a little bit ago, the first couple posts will likely be occurrences or transactions that happened in the last few weeks. And as I’m a contributing writer for Saint Paul Media, Inc. I will probably post more than a few odd facts I come across in my research for that work. This will be a place for the odd overflow from that “practical” writing. And it may be a place where I begin musing for my more “literary” writing. I’ll post what I’ve learned, felt, observed, wondered, gleaned from interactions and gained from transactions doing the course of a given day. I hope you find something of interest or use here.
Sincerely yours,
Sean
