Good enough better than nothing
I have read that writers must put the pen to the page every day. The discipline of writing daily provides a pathway through mediocre writing toward the really good stuff that lies within the writer's mind. I guess that is the way I am looking at this blog right now. I log on almost daily. I click my blog and stare at the blank box waiting for genius to strike. After a moments have passed with no sign of my muse, or genius, or inspiration, or anything in particular to say, I log out without a new posting. I almost let today slip away without posting, but then I remembered the advice of inspirational writing instructors who remind us to write through the "pain." I decided that I would risk exposing my lack of genius and inspiration to the masses, and I would write/post as often as possible to stir up the ideas that I have hope still live in my brain. If this is just good enough, it is better than nothing.
