The stories

The stories I'm telling here are about me. They are, therefore, mostly of interest to me — and to my family and perhaps to my friends.

On the other hand, if I tell them well enough, maybe they'll be of universal interest and even if you've stumbled upon them by accident, you'll say, "What a good story!" and you'll come back and read some more. Even if you don't say, "What a good story!" I'm pretty sure, at some point, you'll say, "That happened to me too." Or maybe you'll say, "I once had a friend/teacher/neighbour like that."

I hope if you do, you'll come back and check out the stories now and then.

I'm not a natural blogger. I'm an editor and writer and so even telling my life stories, I'm not comfortable dashing it off. I want to choose the right words, make sure my facts are accurate, try hard for clarity. I will try to be interesting if not exactly chatty.

I will continue to publish from my archives over here. I've been on a self-appointed sabbatical but I'm going to get back to work and I look forward to seeing you, both here and there.
