I’m having trouble writing again. Even though there is plenty of material to draw from, I can’t seem to pull it all together into something that makes sense to someone besides me. (Oh hell, who am I kidding—it doesn’t make any sense to me either.) My thoughts are innumerable, but the process is like having a football-stadium-full of people try toContinue reading “A Million and One Thoughts”
