The Write Stuff
This blog is about writing. Not reporting or journalism, but creative writing -- poetry, short stories, novels. And not just about the finished product but how we, as writers go about the process, and the trials, tribulations, blood, sweat and tears that go along with it. I'll also talk about another process -- publishing. Finding the right literary agent or publisher, self-publishing, e-publishing, what are the options and what are the chances of breaking into print? That's about it. I am by no means a best selling novelist or have all the answers, but consider this the beginning of a dialogue among a group of people who put pen to paper (okay, finger to keyboard) to release something inside us, something that must be shared.

So Long Skip
Off topic this morning, but I can't let the death of baseball announcer Skip Caray pass without comment. As a long-time Atlanta Braves fan (I grew up in Georgia), I listened to Skip broadcast many, many games. His knowledge of the game, combined with his sarcastic wit made listening a pleasure. If I could capture 1/10 of that in my writing, I'll be successful. The son of Hall-of-Fame broadcaster Harry Caray, and the father of current broadcaster Chip Caray, Skip will forever remain one of my favorites. So long Skip. Your scorecard is complete. 1 comments from 1 users

Sonny, I could not agree more. Although raised here in Texas, I am a long-time Braves fan [we're talking 20+ years]. I have long loved Skip and his very distinctive voice. I often marveled at how differently he sounded than his father and yet I loved them both. The Braves and more importantly, baseball, has truly lost one of its greats. RIP Skip. We'll miss you.
