Okay.... here goes - I'll be the first to admit, I am the walking cliche - a writer stuck in a waitresses body. It's not hard to find one of those here in sunny California - a hop, skip and a jump from infamous Hollywood! I'm cool with that. Waitressing is a perfect job for a writer - you have character sketches, nuances, behaviors, it is detailed research, folks! I enjoy not being stuck behind a desk (funny coming from a writer, right!) at least not day in and day out.
You will find this blog will cover a gamut of interesting topics, people, places, parenting, relationships...I guess it's my blog... so I can write what I want, quite a luxury. I will do my best not to bore you to tears. I intend to keep your interest piqued, your funny bone tickled and your wheels spinnin'. Man, I got my work cut out for me, huh!
I work in a family-owned neighborhood restaurant. "Sometimes you want to go where everybody knows your name"... and this is that place. That's one of the coolest things about it, there are days when I can walk through my station and know everyone in it. It's unique and sure makes the time spent there much more fun. I'm a happily married mother of a 12 y-o, 15 y-o and a 17 y-o. I'm fortunate to find so much satisfaction in my quiet life! My real passion yearns to break free - write! The only thing stopping me is me. Until now. This is how I intend to flex those writing muscles and hope to hear your thoughts, feedback, stories...etc, I want to open a conversation with you. In this crazy world, with 24 short little hours, it means a lot to me that you took some time to read this. Thank you.

ReplyDeleteFunny, but I've begun writing again as well. Working more hours and busier than ever in my off time, but I'm actually working on that novel of which we have spoken before.
I'm sure you will agree that writing is a most challenging endeavor. And very rewarding. I never feel more free that when I expressing my own thoughts and ideas.
I'm looking forward to reading and responding to more of your posts.
