The Tales We Tell

The tales we tell in life are part and parcel of who we be they fact or fiction. It is part of why I love blogging. I have a thousand stories swirling through my mind and a need to express them in a more concrete fashion than the mental movie set I see inside my head. I feel a change coming and I am excited about it. The air is electric with possibilities and potential. If you could read my mind you’d hear a mighty clinking and a clanking rattling around. There is a symphony of sight and sound playing in the background and music that I can’t contain.

Simply put I am in a place where I have to write. It is not a question. It is not a thought or an idea but a need. So I am going to answer the call and work on putting together more fragments and see if I can’t find a way to thread them together in a way that works to tell the story I see. The rub is that I don’t really know where the story is going. I have my thoughts and ideas but this could change. It is part of why I love this and why I am excited. This keyboard, this computer and these words are about to set off on a grand journey to parts and places unknown.

The adventure is about to begin. In the interim here are some of the parts and pieces that I think might be incorporated into this, or maybe not. If you want to find out you’ll just have to keep checking in because you never know where things might go:

    I’m totally hooked on you. I just have to remember to look for the Fiction disclaimer as I’ve gotten caught up with you in the past!

      I appreciate that. At least you know to look for the fiction label some people never do. It leads to interesting conversations. 🙂
