It took me 18 years to put words to paper. I’m not talking about the predictable ad copy I wrote in exchange for a paycheck. I am referring to thoughtfully placing words upon the page until they form a sentence that makes the reader nod, or grimace or grin. And now I am hooked. Enormous thanks to the individual who anonymously upgraded my membership and to the WDC community-at-large who make me feel like this site is home.
