Beginning thoughts

Here begins my first blog entry.   Somewhere in the back recesses of my mind where I kept thoughts contained for such topics, I had the notion that blogs were written by people of monumental noteworthiness or others of a more questionable mind.  I doubt I fall into the first category ... at least at this point in time and I hope I do not fall into the second. Nevertheless, I believe I, too, have a voice to be heard. 

I feel one should state their goal any time one begins a new task.  There are an awful lot of blogs out there to be digested and probably an equal number of reasons for writing a blog.  I see this blog as an opportunity to express my thoughts in a manner which cannot merely be blurted out.  History, and literature are great topics especially if rolled together into a favorite book.  Have you ever just sat down to read the dictionary?  I enjoy words particularly old words and may from time to time ... what do I mean 'may'?  I fully intend from time to time to discuss words.  As humor should always play a part in our lives I intend to dabble in whimsy.  Last, but certainly not least I must forewarn you of my intentions to discuss various aspects of the book, and here some might aptly say saga, I have been writing and the journey towards publication of the first trek entitled "Rune Speaker".  I hope we can have fun with my ramblings and look forward to hearing form you.
