This is me, my writing, and experiences.

I'm Steven, "WYRM member. I might also be known for something which I'm sure will occupy many pages of this journal in time: http://wyrmsgauntlet.com

I've used the alias 'Stargopher' since I joined WDC all the way back when. I rarely sign off that way anymore, preferring my own name, but for now, given the things I'm going to talk about, I like the anonymity it gives me. Back then, I used to read WDC blogs. I've always toyed with the idea of sharing one of my own, but never did, fearing I had nothing worthwhile to say, or that I'd lack the consistency I enjoyed in the work of others. And there was always this thought: my private life is my private life. I just resolved to read them.

But I've fallen off, in all reality. I read social media blurbs of long gone friends and distant relatives. Offsite, I skim newsletters and the book reviews of people I have tried to get to know, but barely do. On WDC, I have kept up with exactly one item: "Taming the Stars But I'm reminded of a quote that has always been very apt for me.

There is a time when a thing in the mind is a heavy thing to carry, and then it must be put down. But such is its nature that it cannot be set on a rock or shouldered off on to the fork of a tree, like a heavy pack. There is only one thing shaped to receive it, and that is another human mind. There is only one time when it can be done, and that is in a shared solitude.

~Theodore Sturgeon, "Scars"
