Encouraging words

I love meeting new people.

Whether it is actually 'meeting' the person or on line I still enjoy the experience of discovery someone elses point of view. I reckon that everyone has something to say that is worth listening to. Even if I agree with every aspect of the other persons viewpoint. I find it useful to revise my opinions on a regular basis.

So thank you to all those lovely people who have followed me on various networks and put up with my 'eccentric' ways. I hope you like my stories and posts. I appreciate your interest.

As writers and readers we need to support and encourage one another. Writing is a lonely business. It is hard thing to do for a living and challenging even as a hobby. Writers need lots of 'hugs.' I know I do. So when I get a +1 or a 'like' or re-tweet it gives me a little boost. I hope I can return the favour to as many others as I can.

Lately I have been a bit lax with my writing. I have a busy job and plenty of 'other stuff' going on in my life at the moment. Every little bit of encouragement helps. I believe that regular writing is not only good from a professional and technical viewpoint but is amazingly good psychologically. Stories help the human mind function more effectively. Words can heal. So I will try to manoeuvre my lifestyle back into a position where I get the words onto the screen or notepad (almost) every day.

I want to give something back to my followers. I will write short stories and poems and publish them for free. I value your feedback. I will also (soon I hope!) be producing something more substantial. Please be patient.

So support your local writers. Lets make the world a better and richer place with our stories.

That is my aim.
