THINGS HAVE CHANGED:

Since I am no longer a professor in the classroom, this blog is changing focus. (I may at some future date change platforms, too, but not yet). I am now (as of May 2019) playing around with the idea of using this blog as a place to talk about the struggles of writing creatively. Those of you who have been following (or dipping in periodically) know that I've already been doing a little of that, but now the change is official. I don't write every day--yet--so I won't post to the blog every day--yet. But please do check in from time to time, if you're interested in this new phase in my life.


Hi! And you are...?

I am interested to see the fluctuation in my readers--but I don't know who is reading the blog, how you found it, and why you find it interesting. I'd love to hear from you! Please feel free to use the "comment" box at the end of any particular post to let me know what brought you to this page--and what keeps you coming back for more (if you do).

OK, I'm an attention junkie

After I post, I always check the stats for this blog: how many views have there been in the last week, month, all time... There's a graph showing how many page views there have been in each month, and some time back, I got close to breaking 800--but not quite. So I'm jonesing for that little hit of "success." Tell your friends. Tell your enemies. Let's get more people checking in on this blog so I can get more than 800 hits in a month! What key words do I need to use so people doing random searches end up getting directed here? I don't want to descend into sleaze, but short of that, what are the buzz words?

Ah, screw it. Either people find the blog and find it worth reading or they don't.

But it would be nice...

    I do tell (do tell!)

    As the husband of a face book bee queen with a 2700 member hive, I know why we should spread the word ! And I do!
