Three years later... while searching for something else....
I came across this.
You are the best!! You are one of a very people who read my words.
But.
I quit writing.
Now I wish I had kept writing.
I STOPPED WRITING
In large part because nobody (beside you, @owasco, and a few - a very few! - others) would read my stuff.
But.
I still read my own stuff!
I'll find something from years ago, and I'm amazed at details I'd forgotten.
And the voice. Hey. I recognize that voice.
That is MY voice!
I may be my only fan, but I'm genuine fan of my own writing.
LOL LOL
Thank you @owasco, @Raj808, @myjob, and all who have read my ramblings all these years.
You are my treasure.
And I treasure your words too.
Sad to say, I have stopped reading too - at least, I rarely visit Hive anymore.
Why.
Why.
Time to say "Get thee behind me, Satan" to the voice of futility and despair, and go, go, embrace whoever is around and still speaking to me!
(Thank you for still speaking to me!)
