Who am I?

It's only fitting in this, my first blog here, that I tell you who I am, and my intent for this.

I'm a musician--I'll be announcing when I upload a new tune to my music websites here, in case you care about that. I'm trying to become a screenwriter--I'll be writing about that a lot, too. I'm quite frustrated with the publishing industry and have given up writing novels--I'll be complaining about that a lot, too.

I'll probably upload lyrics to some of my songs here, excerpts from stuff I'm working on, but mostly I think I'll be writing about things I'm working through. Character stuff, plot stuff, that sort of thing. Writing about people, observing people, always seems to unearth questions to me--why do people do what they do? Why did one person do something and another, in the same situation, do something else? How much do we have in common with each other? How are we different?

I'll ask for opinions on stuff and feel free to offer yours. I'm always grateful to anyone who takes the time to read something I've written and I value feedback. All I ask is, if you have a criticism, that it be a *constructive* criticism.

So, if you feel the need to holler at me go right ahead. In the mean-time I'll be here creating, thinking, trying to make sense of it all, offering my insights, such as they are, and bitching and moaning.

I'm looking forward to it!
