| Introduction | I'm a writer. Well, I try to be a writer. I'm paid to be a sports writer, and I enjoy writing about sports. However, I try not to limit myself to that genre, mainly because my few years as a sports writer have partially killed my will to write, or redefined "writing" for me. I liked old things: Old sports uniforms, old music, old cooking methods, old church songs (hymns, not "Christian rock"), old manners i.e. chivalry. I believe every day is one big blessing comprised of countless smaller blessings from The Good Lord, so I try not to take things for granted. |
