What’s Up
So I’ve been away a little while because of a couple of things. I had been intermittently working on my memoir but I wanted to get morefocused on it so I joined a writing group. This has been great for critique, support, and accountability (it’s embarrassing to show up and have nothing new to share.)
Since I’ve been working on the memoir, I have changed the way it’s posted here at the cabin, also, so if you are interested in reading it, or parts of it, you can find the sections listed on the left under “Pages.”
The other big change is that I’ve finally decided that getting a Master’s degree is important enough to me that I should just dive in and get it done, so I’m now officially, despite my advanced age, a student. I’m studying Organizational Psychology, and I have to admit it’s pretty interesting even though it’s a lot of work. Still, I’m committed to the memoir so I will keep working on it, especially when I have breaks between classes.
Redux
I suppose it will seem a little lazy — ok it just IS a little lazy — but today’s “new post” isn’t exactly that. I’ve added a couple of sections to Partial Recall – and if you’ve been following me for a while they may not be new to you, as they are edited versions of things I wrote a while ago. Soon I’ll have all that material assembled and will have to actually write new stuff.
Partial Recall
Blogging started for me as a medium for writing a memoir, and lately I’ve been anxious to get back into it. Some pieces have already been written, much has not.
About Friends
OK, one thing I’m not going to do anymore is say that I will be posting more often. Obviously I can’t be relied upon to fulfill that type of commitment.
One reason for my recent absence is that I have been working on a couple of other things. One is a new blog relating to supervision and management. I’ve gathered some content already for this, I’ll let you know when it’s available.
The other reason is that I’ve been working on “Friends” which is now appended here as a separate page. This was really a personal project, writing as complete a history as I can of my experiences with a very close friend, Don. Don is quite ill, and I wanted to get a good chunk of this done so he could read it while he is off of work for a little while.
But, I decided to post it here as well, although it probably won’t be of much interest unless you happen to know me or Don outside of the Cabin. If you do happen to know us, or not, and want to add any comments, please feel free to do so.
Phonics
After that first brief image, looking at the light under the door and listening to my mother’s voice, the memories of childhood come in indistinguishable order. We moved once, when I was 10 or so, and everything I remember is divided into the old house and the new house. Read more
