Introduction / About This Blog

For years I have been sending out email journal updates about my life to my friends and family, sharing my thoughts, perspectives, adventures, and tribulations. Sort of like a blog, but by email.

Recently a good friend suggested that a blog would be a better forum for my email journal entries, and suggested that I start a blog page and add my existing email journal archives as blog entries to get me started and share my story with others

He seemed to feel that the sordid details of my life might be interesting to some! He wrote:

David,

Just a thought...

You seem to be very good at journaling your experiences. Your writing is clear, informational and emotive. Have you thought perhaps about doing it in a more structured environment, such as a blog, where it could reach a larger audience? If the site started to generate traffic, you even might be able to get some ad revenue off of it. In the meantime, you'd be making your own experience and things you've learned available to others in the same condition. Writing on a daily basis might also provide some therapeutic value for yourself.

Just something to consider.

Steve

This blog represents a realization of that idea!   (Thanks Steve!)

If you are reading this now, bear with me, I still have months of work left to do and hundreds of posts to add! I intend to build this blog in chronological order, from oldest to newest until I am current, after which point I will simply add new entries whenever I have something new to convey.

I will try to add one new post a day.
