Here I go...

For the last year, I have been practicing my writing.... And by posting it here, I have been practicing my commitment to same.

I have never been able to tackle anything longer than a poem or blog entry. My writing bursts out in almost painful fits and starts and every time I have aspired to something longer, I have started it, then never gone back to it.

There are people in my life who encourage me to write. All of the time, I hear "When are you going to write a book?"

Well, I don't know about a book. That seems outrageously ambitious. I would like to be able to write one good, complete story.

I am hoping that if I post my progress here, it will inspire (Shame?) me into finishing it.

For my first attempt, I am going to stick to something I really know... I want to write a story about the process of finding one's kink... A sort of second coming out story... Not the most literary of topics, but who the hell cares?

I am slow at this. It will come a little at a time.. But I figure, if I can finish it this year, that will be a big step.

The few paragraphs that follow took me a long time.

Ok.. I cleaned up the rest of it a bit, and am now posting everything I have.. it is still not much, and still rough... But I think it may work....

I posted it from the beginning, as there were a few very minor changes made to what I had posted before.
