Reminds me a little of my on-again-off-again relationship to my guitar: every time I leave it alone for months (or even years), I almost always wind up with several songs (both original and covers) that I can no longer play and wind up tossing in the scrap heap (although it has recently occurred to me that some of that difficulty is probably due to the fact that my weight has varied over the years from 105 to 165 pounds so the fingers sometimes are literally too BIG to fit in certain patterns [which I have hopefully learned enough alternative fingerings for now to avoid such issues in the future...])

I get a little excitement and joy when I see the email notification that you have put up a new post. One guy out here who looks forward to your writing.

Almost as much as I look forward to the Avalanche beating the Isles.

I’ve always admired your ability to write, it’s not something I have a talent for myself.

Write for yourself. The hell with everyone else.
