One writer's brain
It’s foolish, some part of my being keeps telling me, to write without the certainty of an audience.
At this point, I don’t know that anyone is reading this blog. In fact, I’ve told very few about it yet. Who could be reading? What is a writer without an audience?
Here’s what I know: Something inside this brain compels me to write. I must do it. I often avoid doing it because there is no audience, no forum or no topic that comes to mind, but the words always come. A writer’s brain — this writer’s brain — cannot suppress the words.
And they come very easily. Grammar is no problem for me. Sentences complete themselves. Words are always there. A reason to write is not. That’s why this blog must succeed this time. I’m desperate to communicate something, and we can find out together whatever it is — whoever you are, if you’re reading at all.
You can do two things to make sure this blog is successful, dynamic and interesting. First, comment on this post. Comments mean so much to me. Second, subscribe for free by email to So Much More Life. That ensures we always stay in touch.

I think if a tree falls in the forest and no one is there, there is still a noise, but it sure is better for someone to hear it.
I write physician bluegrass fiction. It is all I know, but I know it well.
Write about what you know that is unique and the curious will come, because they have to learn.
Good luck, and stay with it. I had mine up a year before it got any serious traffic. At first it was all I could do to get my mama to read it.
