2, 2, 2. Is this thing on?

This is a soft relaunch of this blog. I'm not proud to report that I haven't added a single word to my great American novel---my grand plan in shuttering this blog in the first place. That's fine, it's still a project, albeit covered by a tarp in the garage.

So, I'm back to the blog. It's an outlet that I've missed as there have been so many times that I've had a thought or touch of inspiration that I really would have liked to share--but the 'closed' sign was on the front door.

If anything, the break was good in that it gave me a chance to forget about some of what I wrote. Revisiting old blogs gave me fresh eyes and I learned what I liked about some of the old pieces---and what I didn't.

#1 is to keep these shorter. Funny, even though I wrote them all---I was finding myself a little antsy reading the longer ones. So, I'll employ better editing skills. Like I did when I was in radio, I will seek to communicate in the most efficient manner. After all, in the few times I've actually heard the voice of God--He's used less than 10 words.

Welcome back! I left you in my reader just in case - it will be nice to "hear" your voice again. Hope to hear what God's been doing in your life in the meantime.

Danny, Well intentions on your part to finish you novel. You will finish it one day if it's God's will...I beleive His will for you now is for you to communicate and inspire His work to others through this blog. Welcome back.

when God spoke to you it was in only 6 words: "Hey, Dan? I'm not a man"
