BACK TO ROUTINE

There’s nothing like starting a new year with a

different approach to all sorts of things.

I ask myself, what can I do to give it a fresh

perspective? Look back at the previous

year. Did I accomplish then what I hoped to

to achieve?

What I do, as it is, takes imagination. Characters

who must come off the page. A story line that keeps

the reader glued to the story.

We make up stories as kids about all sorts of things.

Hoping our parents might go along with it. When they

know we’re trying to ‘pull the wool over their eyes,’

as the old expression goes.

Writer’s comment: Looking back, I’m damn sure

pulling that kind of stuff never worked. And I was

not smart enough to realize it.
