Some tales of my life to limber up my writing skills.

         There has got to be about a gazillion-million stories out there. Most of them really interesting. Really, I mean that! True stories to! Isn’t that the coolest? I love listening to real life stories from someone who can actually tell a story well. You know the people I’m talking about. Them that can plait a world with their words, smiles and the twinkle of their eye. Where scenes of life just jumps up in front of you in all it’s adventurous glory. The talented, tale tellers, the wonderful word weavers and other good alliterations.

         I am not one of these people. I’ve always wanted to be, but am not. When I get up in front of a group of folks, my tongue gets tied and everything just trips and gets kinda clumsy. The story that is supposed to be funny is misunderstood and the serious narrative is laughed at. So, in my frustration, I am now turning to the written word to get my true to life yarns out.

         So, this be them. Or at least, a few of them.
