Huh? Whaaat? Did I hear something?

Been very, very quiet around here for far too long. Wouldn't it be nice to breathe some life into this slumbering beast?

Hello V what are you up these days? A lot of people seem to be blogging and have given up hope of ever being published, it is a trend I see with photographers and artists too. The work gets out there but it doesn't feed the dog.

Since I seem to enjoy beating my head against the wall, I have not only taken up blogging but photography as well. Of course there is no money in it, but I keep telling myself that it's good practice. I get inordinately happy when someone leaves a comment.

And perhaps someday someone will notice me sitting at the soda fountain counter. . .

Until then, I keep plugging away at the day job.

And how is life with you?

I really like the pictures on your blog V, I know you were not asking for criticism but I would like to see the page more colourful.

I have a blog too 'beyondcolourful', (which is odd considering what I just wrote about your blog) but I don't get much response. For me the most frustrating aspect of writing or photography is the wait between creation and response. When I have read aloud to an audience I much prefer that, the performance of the work. Other than that winter is always tough as landscaping is impossible in our climate. I was always looking for a response here which only rarely happened in the beginning but when it slowed down and the contributions became too careful I got bored.

Slam! What was that noise?
