This is my about page. “Just what is an “about” page?” You might ask, so I will try to tell you. I like part of Webster’s definition. He says that “about” means, “In no particular direction: here and there, all around: on every side, almost the same as…”
So, now that we think we know what, “about” means let me tell you “about” myself and this blog.
I am a pseudo grown up, 74 year old, little boy. I like to stick my paws into dark holes to see what might be lurking therein, I like crawling into strange and weird places, turning over rocks chasing things, climbing trees and being chased, and doing things that “normal” people don’t do for fear of getting folded, spindled and mutilated, meaning, bit, clawed, stepped on, chewed, stung, tossed, fallen from, or an interesting combinationand thereof.
I have been “folded, spindled and mutilated” enough times to have learned something but alas, as I have aged, I have been accused of not having the good sense God gave a goofy gopher and “maturity” has eluded me and my curiosity just seems to get curiouser and curiouser as my hair gets less and less.
I am a naturalist, wildlife photographer and inveterate wanderer surviving more by the grace and help of God than by my wits.
This blog is “about” life. It is also about living and memories and about yesterday, today and tomorrow. This blog might at times appear a bit irreverent but I assure you that the Almighty has carried me this far and I expect He will carry me the rest of the way.
This blog is about nature and nature writing and about writing about nature and stuff related.
This blog is “about…!”
I hope you enjoy “THE WRITER’S HEART”
