Many times over the last year I have wanted to hide behind my keyboard and just write. The written word has always been therapeutic for me even at an early age. For many reasons, I have talked myself out of writing and sharing what’s on my mind.

For many years, my job consisted of writing at least two news stories a day along with many other duties. Since I have moved on from that phase of my life, I feel as if a part of me has died. Just because I no longer work in the news business doesn’t mean I can’t share my words with others. Sadly, it has taken me too long—and the urging of some good friends—to make me realize that.

I’m not sure yet what topics I will cover, all I know is I will be writing—and that makes me happy.
