I noticed that my little blog like notes attract attention for some reason. Even on MySpace these little ditties always drew a crowd. Either I'm a decent writer or people are diverted easily (probably the latter). I've always thought that EVERYONE (not just celebrities etc.) should write a biography. Why? Well not only is it a wondrous form of introspection that may actually prove therapeutic but...even the most seemingly simple life can be alluring and exciting when put to paper. If any of my *familiars were to write one, rest assured I would read it cover to cover and anticipate more. Myself, I'd like to write one just because I have such a shoddy memory and as they say: "those who cannot remember the past are doomed to repeat it" and to put it lightly there are many things from my past wholly undeserving of repetition!
Another type of literary style I've been digging lately is the so-called "oral history". It makes the written word appear much more spontaneous and eclectic... kind of like an open conversation being tape recorded and edited later. Anyways, I'll no longer deny that I enjoy the response my blurbs garner. Furthermore, I enjoy the responses that actually critique and add to the topic, shedding light where I came up short. So please don't hesitate to jump on in, lest I talk to myself more than I already do!
As always...thanks for reading. -R
*Randy's word for friends....kind of.
